An unpolarised light beam of intensity $2 I_{0}$ is passed through a polaroid $P$ and then through another polaroid $Q$ which is oriented in such a way that its passing axis makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ relative to that of $P$. The intensity of the emergent light is.

$A$ polaroid is placed at $45^{\circ}$ to an incoming linearly polarized light of intensity $I_0$. The intensity of light passing through the polaroid after polarization will be:

$A$ $20 \ cm$ length of a certain solution causes right-handed rotation of $38^{\circ}$. $A$ $30 \ cm$ length of another solution causes left-handed rotation of $24^{\circ}$. The optical rotation caused by a $30 \ cm$ length of a mixture of the above solutions in the volume ratio $1:2$ is
