Linearly polarized light whose Jones vector is [0 1] (horizontally polarized) is sent through a train of two linear polarizers. The first is oriented with its transmission axis at 45 degrees and the second has its transmission axis vertical. Show that the emerging light is linearly polarized in the vertical direction; that is, the plane of polarization has been rotated by 90 degrees.

Following are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

The input linear polarisation was shown at an angle of . It's a very popular use of a half-wave plate. In particular, consider the case , at which the angle of rotation is . HWP thereby provides a great way to turn, for instance, a linear polarised light that swings horizontally to polarise vertically. Illustration of action on event circularly polarized light of the half-wave platform. Customarily it is the slow axis of HWP that corresponds to either the rotation. Note that perhaps the vector of polarization is "double-headed," i.e., the electromagnetic current swinging back and forward in time. Therefore the turning angle could be referred to as the rapid axis to reach the same result. Please find the attached file.

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s

given:

acceleration = 0.6

time = 4.5 s

to find:

velocity = ?

formula used:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

solution:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

v = 0 + (0.6 × 4.5)

v = 2.7 m/s

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s
