32. Electromagnetic Waves / Polarization & Polarization Filters / Problem 5
An unpolarized beam of light from an ordinary tungsten bulb is incident in the x direction and has an intensity Iinc. It crosses two ideal linear sheet polarizers stacked one behind the other. The transmission axis of the first sheet is perpendicular to the x-axis, while the transmission axis of the second sheet forms an angle Φ with respect to the first. Determine the value of Φ if the intensity of the light emerging from the two polarizers is Iinc/6.
