← ScienceWhich polarization effect arises attempting to transmit light through misaligned filters?
A)Intensity is exponentially attenuated squared✓
B)Frequency spectrum undergoes a blue shift
C)Phase velocity experiences chromatic dispersion
D)Wavelength undergoes non-linear parametric oscillation
💡 Explanation
Light intensity decreases according to Malus's Law, because the **polarization** component passed by each filter stage is reduced; therefore, intensity scales with cos²θ, rather than spectral distortions under specific conditions.
