Polarized light approaching a vertical linear polarizing filter.
Polarized light approaching a vertical linear polarizing filter.
A beam of linearly polarized light with initial intensity \(I_0\) travels along the \(z\)-axis. The electric field of the incident light oscillates at an angle of \(60^\circ\) relative to the vertical \(y\)-axis. The beam encounters a linear polarizing filter whose transmission axis is aligned vertically along the \(y\)-axis. Which of the following correctly identifies the orientation of the electric field of the transmitted light and its intensity immediately after passing through the filter?
