Two polarizers are oriented with their principal planes making an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with each other. The percentage of incident unpolarized light which passes through the system is: (in $\%$)

An unpolarised beam of light is incident on a group of three polarising sheets arranged such that the angle between the axes of any two adjacent sheets is $30^{\circ}$. The ratio of the intensities of polarised light emerging from the second and third sheets is

Light passes successively through two polarimeter tubes,each of length $0.29 \ m$. The first tube contains a dextrorotatory solution of concentration $60 \ kg/m^3$ and specific rotation $0.01 \ rad \ m^2/kg$. The second tube contains a laevorotatory solution of concentration $30 \ kg/m^3$ and specific rotation $0.02 \ rad \ m^2/kg$. The net rotation produced is.......$^\circ$.

Two beams,$A$ and $B$,of plane polarized light with mutually perpendicular planes of polarization are seen through a polaroid. From the position when the beam $A$ has maximum intensity (and beam $B$ has zero intensity),a rotation of the polaroid through $30^{\circ}$ makes the two beams appear equally bright. If the initial intensities of the two beams are $I_A$ and $I_B$ respectively,then $\frac{I_A}{I_B} = $

Two nicols are crossed to each other. Now one of them is rotated through $60^{\circ}$. What percentage of incident light will pass through the system (in $\%$)?
