Two Nicol prisms are inclined at an angle of $60^o$ to each other. What percentage of the incident unpolarized light passes through the system?

Three polaroid sheets are kept parallel to each other such that the first and the last are crossed. Unpolarised light of intensity $32 \ W m^{-2}$ falls normally on the first sheet and passes through all the polaroid sheets. If the intensity of the emerging light from the third sheet is $3 \ W m^{-2}$,then the angle between the axes of the first two polaroid sheets is: (in $^{\circ}$)

Consider the following statements $A$ and $B$ and identify the correct answer:
$A$. Polarised light can be used to study the helical surface of nucleic acids.
$B$. Optical axis is a direction and not any particular line in the crystal.

An unpolarized light beam of intensity $I_0$ is passed through a first polaroid $A$ and then through a second polaroid $B$. If the principal plane of polaroid $B$ makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with that of $A$,find the intensity of the emerging light.

Unpolarised light of intensity $I_0$ is incident on a polarizer. What is the percentage of the intensity of light that gets transmitted from the polarizer (in $\%$)?
