Three polarizing disks whose planes are parallel are centered on a common axis. The direction of the transmission axis in each case is shown in the figure below relative to the common vertical direction. A plane-polarized beam of light with E0 parallel to the vertical reference direction is incident from the left on the first disk with intensity Ii =10.0 W/m2. Calculate the transmitted intensity If when (a) θ1=20.0°, θ2 =40.0°, and θ3 = 60.0° !
