After passing through a polariser a linearly polarised light of intensity I is incident on an analyser making an angle of 30 with that of the polariser. The intensity of light emitted from the analyser will be
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
According to Malu's Law
$${I_{out}} = {I_{in}}\,{\cos ^2}\theta $$
$${I_{out}} = I\,{\cos ^2}(30^\circ )$$
$${I_{out}} = {{3I} \over 4}$$
