Two polaroide A and B are placed in such a way that the pass-axis of polaroids are perpendicular to each other. Now, another polaroid is placed between and bisecting angle between them. If intensity of unpolarized light is \mathrm{I_{0}} then intensity of transmitted light after passing through polaroid B will be:

Option: 1

\mathrm{\frac{I_{0}}{4}}


Option: 2

\mathrm{\frac{I_{0}}{2}}


Option: 3

\mathrm{After\: A,I=\frac{I}{2}}

\mathrm{After\: C,I=\frac{I_{0}}{2}\cos ^{2}45^{0}=\frac{I_{0}}{4}}

\mathrm{After\: B,I=\frac{I_{0}}{2}\cos ^{2}45^{0}=\frac{I_{0}}{8}}
