  1. Polarized Light

  2. 1)Unpolarized light is shone at a vertical polarizing filter. Through the filter you get a)all the light b)half the light c)1/4 of the light d)nothing ?

  3. 2)Unpolarized light is shone at a polarizing filter. The light that gets through it then meets another filter oriented the same way. Through both filters you will get a)all the light b)half the light c)one quarter of the light d)nothing ?

  4. 3)Unpolarized light is shone at a polarizing filter at 0oand then another at 90o. Through both filters you will get a)all the light b)half the light c)one quarter of the light d)nothing

  5. 4)How are polarizing filters different from regular filters?

  6. What’s wrong with this diagram?

  7. 5)Unpolarized light is shone at a polarizing filter at 0oand then another at 45o. Through both filters you will get a)half the light b)one quarter of the light c)one eighth of the light d)nothing ½ x ½ = ¼

  8. The first filter reduces the light by ½. The second filter reduces it by ½ again. However, the component is 0.707, not 0.5. How can you get ½? cos2(45) = ½

  9. 6)Unpolarized light is shone at a polarizing filter at 0oand then another at30o. The first filter multiplies it by one half and the second multiplies it by a)one half b)three halves c)one quarter d)three quarters

  10. 7)Unpolarized light is shone at a polarizing filter 0o and then another at 45o and then another at 90 o. Through all three filters you will get a)one quarter of the light b)one eighth of the light c)one sixteenth of the light d)none of the light

  11. 8)Which set of filters will pass more light? A filter at 0 oand then a)90 o b)45 o then 90 o c)30 o then 60 o then 90 o d)22.5 o then 45 o then 67.5 o then 90 o 0.5 x 0.92 x 0.92 x 0.92 x 0.92 = 0.73

  12. 9)What is the effect of the calcite crystal on light?
