Problem

A beam of unpolarized light with intensity 100 W/m2100\,\text{W/m}^2 first passes through a vertical polarizer and then through a second polarizer whose transmission axis makes an angle of 30° with the vertical. What is the intensity of the transmitted light? a) 75 W/m275\,\text{W/m}^2 b) 12.5 W/m212.5\,\text{W/m}^2 c) 37.5 W/m237.5\,\text{W/m}^2 d) 43 W/m243\,\text{W/m}^2
