okay, so here's what I have so far
I (as a function of theta) = Imaxcos^2theta
Imaxcos^2theta = Imax + Imin
Imax(cos^2theta-1) = Imin
Imax(cos2theta) = Imin
am I on the right path?
1. Here's the question:
The percent polarization P of a partially polarized beam of light is defined as
P = [Imax - Imin]/[Imax + Imin] x 100
where Imax and Imin are the max and min intensities that are obtained when the light...
