    Unpolarized light falls on two polarizing sheets placed one on top of other. If the intensity of transmitted light is one fourth of the incident light, the angle between them is

    A)  \[{{35}^{o}}\]   

    B)  \[{{40}^{o}}\]

    C)  \[{{45}^{o}}\]   

    D)  \[{{50}^{o}}\]

    E) Not available

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

    From law of Malus \[I={{I}_{0}}\,\,{{\cos }^{2}}\theta \] Given,      \[I=\frac{{{I}_{0}}}{4}\] \[\frac{1}{4}={{\cos }^{2}}\,\theta \] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\cos \,\,\theta =\frac{1}{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \]  \[\theta ={{60}^{o}}\] Note None of the options are correct.
