Questions
1. What is the shape of the plot of light intensity versus angle?
2. What is the shape of the plot of light intensity versus cosine of the angle?
3. What is the shape of the plot of light intensity versus cosine
2
of the angle?
4. Theoretically, what percentage of incident plane polarized light would be transmitted through three Polarizers
which have their axes rotated 17 degrees (0.29 radians) from each other?Assume ideal polarizers and assume
that the second polarizer’s axis is rotated 17 degrees (0.29 radians) from the first and that the third polarizer’s
axis is rotated 17 degrees (0.29 radians) from the second.
5. From your data, determine the answer to Question #4 for the real polarizers.
