The drawing shows two sheets of polarizing material. polarizer 1 has its transmission axis aligned vertically, and polarizer 2 has its transmission axis aligned at an angle of 45° with respect to the vertical. light that is completely polarized along the vertical direction is incident either from the far left or from the far right. in either case, the average intensity of the incident light is the same. which one of the following statements is true concerning the average intensity of the light that is transmitted by the pair of sheets? (a) when the light is incident from either the left or the right, the transmitted intensity is one-half the incident intensity. (b) when the light is incident from either the left or the right, the transmitted intensity is one-fourth the incident intensity. (c) when the light is incident from the left, the transmitted intensity is one-half the incident intensity; when the light is incident from the right, the transmitted intensity is zero. (d) when the light is incident from the left, the transmitted intensity is one-fourth the incident intensity; when the light is incident from the right, the transmitted intensity is one-half the incident intensity. (e) when the light is incident from the left, the transmitted intensity is one-half the incident intensity; when the light is incident from the right, the transmitted intensity is one-fourth the incident intensity

Comedians like to joke that the reason we haven’t been visited by intelligent life from elsewhere in the universe is that aliens have been monitoring earth’s broadcasts of intellectually embarrassing tv programs, like gilligan’s island, fear factor, the jersey shore, and the jerry springer showand so consider us far too primitive to merit a visit. let’s check the assertion that aliens could have been receiving them. tv programs are broadcast at a frequency of about 100mhz with about 100kw of total power in 30frames per second, which emanatesroughly uniformly in all directions. assume that interstellar space transmits these broadcasts without attenuation. no matter how smart they are, aliens would require at least one photon per frame to interpret our signals. findthe number of photons per unit time per unit area reaching a receiver on a possible planet in the nearest star system, which is about 4 light-years away (a light-year is the distance light travels in a year). if aliens aimed a receiver or detector directly at earth, how big (in diameter) would it have to be to receive a photon per frame
