A Linearly Polarized Electromagnetic Wave Is Sent Through Two Sheets

question 29

Multiple Choice

A linearly polarized electromagnetic wave is sent through two sheets of polarizing material. The first sheet, A, is oriented so that its transmission axis makes an angle of 30° with respect to the incident electric field of the wave. The second sheet, B, is oriented so that its transmission axis makes an angle of 90° with the incident electric field of the wave. The incident beam has an electric field of peak magnitude E0 and average intensity S0. A linearly polarized electromagnetic wave is sent through two sheets of polarizing material.
