Question

.5*3.7 = 1.85 W/m^2
1.85 W/m^2 THIS IS CORRECT


2) What is the angle of polarization of the light once it has passed through the polarizer? Measure the angle relative to the vertical. (Use deg for degrees.) Cockwise or Counter-CLockwise?


3) Linearly polarized light with an intensity of 6.70 W/m2 passes through a polarizer whose transmission axis is tilted at an angle of = 57.0° clockwise relative to the vertical. The polarization angle, , for the incoming light is 19.9°.

What is the intensity of the light once it has passed through the polarizer?


4) What is the angle of polarization of the light once it has passed through the polarizer? Measure the angle relative to the vertical. (Use deg for degrees.) Cockwise or Counter-CLockwise?

Explanation / Answer

2) Angle of polarization is 52 degrees clockwise relative to the vertical.


3)Intensity of light after passing through the polarizer = 6.70 X (cos 19.9) X (cos 19.9) = 5.92 W/m2


4) Polarization Angle = 57 + 19.9 = 76.9
