Answer:
The emerging intensity is equal to 0.75[tex]I_{o}[/tex]
Explanation:
The initial intensity of the light = [tex]I_{o}[/tex]
The angle of polarization β = 30°
We know that the polarized light intensity is related to the initial light intensity by
[tex]I[/tex] = [tex]I_{0} cos^{2}\beta[/tex]
where [tex]I[/tex] is the emerging polarized light intensity
inserting values gives
[tex]I[/tex] = [tex]I_{0} cos^{2}[/tex] 30°
[tex]cos^{2}[/tex] 30° = [tex](cos 30)^{2}[/tex] = [tex](\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} )^{2}[/tex] = 0.75
[tex]I[/tex] = 0.75[tex]I_{o}[/tex]
