- Hi! Please read everything first before answering. Read carefully as well because you might be confused.I asked this question already here in Bartleby but I have not received the exact answer The question is:Unpolarized light with intensity I₀ is incident on two polarizers as sketched in Figure B. Suppose the angle between the axes of the two polarizers is θ = 60°. What is the intensity of the transmitted light? EXPRESS YOUR ANSWER AS A FRACTION OF I₀. And I got the answer 0.125 I₀. The question says THE ANSWER SHOULD BE EXPRESSED AS A FRACTION OF I₀. The answer I got is decimal and i don't know how i will turn it to fraction. I am not sure if converting it to fraction is correct so I am seeking for your help. Please help me. What I just need is TO EXPRESS MY ANSWER AS A FRACTION OF I₀.
