Unpolarized light of intensity is incident on a system of three polaroids. The first and third polaroids are kept crossed. Match the angle of the middle polaroid relative to the first polaroid (List-I) with the final transmitted intensity (List-II).
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| (A) | (I) |
| (B) | (II) |
| (C) | (III) |
| (D) | (IV) |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- A(A)-(IV), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
- B(A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
- C(A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
- D(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
Correct answer
B. (A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
Step-by-step solution
When unpolarized light of intensity passes through the first polaroid, its intensity becomes .
Let the angle of the middle polaroid with the first be . Since the third polaroid is crossed with the first, its angle with the middle polaroid is .
The final transmitted intensity is:
For (A) : (Matches II)
For (B) : (Matches IV)
For (C) : (Matches III)
For (D) : (Matches I)
Answer: (A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
Let the angle of the middle polaroid with the first be . Since the third polaroid is crossed with the first, its angle with the middle polaroid is .
The final transmitted intensity is:
For (A) : (Matches II)
For (B) : (Matches IV)
For (C) : (Matches III)
For (D) : (Matches I)
Answer: (A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
