A layer of oil (n1 = 1.46) is floating on top of water (n2 = 1.33). A light beam traveling in oil is hitting the oil-water interface. (a) What is the speed of light in oil? (b) What is the critical angle of total internal reflection of this oil-water interface?

The intensity of a polarized electromagnetic wave is 12 w/m^2. part a) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=0∘ with the plane of polarization? part b) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=30∘ with the plane of polarization? part c) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=45∘ with the plane of polarization? part d) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=60∘ with the plane of polarization? part e) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=90∘ with the plane of polarization?

Two polarizers are oriented at 70∘∘ to one another. unpolarized light falls on them. what fraction of the light intensity is transmitted?
