Which filtering outcome occurs when initially unpolarized light travels through two polarizers with a 90-degree angular offset?

💡 Explanation

When two polarizers are crossed, complete extinction results because Malus's Law dictates intensity reduction via polarization; therefore, no light passes, rather than constructive patterns occurring under coherent, phased alignment of polarizers.
