An unpolarised beam of intensity $2 a^{2}$ passes through a thin polaroid. Assuming zero absorption in the polaroid,the intensity of emergent plane polarised light is

An unpolarized light passes through three polarizing sheets whose polarizing directions make an angle of $30^o$,$60^o$,and $30^o$ with the $y$-axis in the same sense. What fraction of the initial intensity is transmitted by the system?

Three linear polarisers are placed coaxially. The transmission axis of the first polariser is at $30^{\circ}$,the second one is at $60^{\circ}$,and the third at $90^{\circ}$ to the vertical,all in the clockwise sense. Each polariser additionally absorbs $10 \%$ of the light. If a vertically polarised beam of light of intensity $I=100 \, W/m^2$ is incident on this assembly of polarisers,then the final intensity of the transmitted light will be close to ................ $W/m^2$.

In the figure,suppose the transmission axes of the left and right polarizing disks are perpendicular to each other. Also,let the center disk be rotated on the common axis with an angular speed $\omega$. If unpolarized light is incident on the left disk with an intensity $I_{max}$,the intensity of the beam emerging from the right disk is given by:

$A$ point source $S$ emits unpolarized light uniformly in all directions. At two points $A$ and $B$,the ratio $r = I_A / I_B$ of the intensities of light is $2$. If a set of two polaroids having $45^{\circ}$ angle between their pass-axes is placed just before point $B$,then the new value of $r$ will be.

Statement-$I$: On viewing the clear blue portion of the sky through a calcite crystal,the intensity of transmitted light varies as the crystal is rotated.
Statement-$II$: The light coming from the sky is polarized due to the scattering of sunlight by particles in the atmosphere. The scattering is largest for blue light.
