• Describe the size and orientation of images formed from lenses and mirrors
• Explain how the orientation of two polarizers affects the amount of light that passes through them
by convex lens
by concave lens
Explain how the orientation of two polarizers affects the amount of light that passes through them
if any unpolarized light fall on first polarizer than its intensity wll become half after passing from first polarizer
and when it passes through 2nd polarizer its intensity is given by
I= I0* cos2θ
here θ is the angle with the vertical axis
now if two polarizers axis are one is vertical and one is horizontal then no light will pass from 2nd polarizer since cos90 = 0
other than 90 deg orientation, some intensity will pass so by using two polarizers we can vary the intensity of unpolarized light
