In a Young's double slit experiment, three polarizers are kept as shown in the figure. The transmission axes of \( P_1 \) and \( P_2 \) are orthogonal to each other. The polarizer \( P_3 \) covers both the slits with its transmission axis at \( 45^\circ \) to those of \( P_1 \) and \( P_2 \). An unpolarized light of wavelength \( \lambda \) and intensity \( I_0 \) is incident on \( P_1 \) and \( P_2 \). The intensity at a point after \( P_3 \), where the path difference between the light waves from \( S_1 \) and \( S_2 \) is \( \frac{\lambda}{3} \), is:

Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques
Organic Chemistry is a subset of chemistry dealing with compounds of carbon. Therefore, we can say that Organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds and is 200-225 years old. Carbon forms bond with itself to form long chains of hydrocarbons, e.g.CH4, methane and CH3-CH3 ethane. Carbon has the ability to form carbon-carbon bonds quite elaborately. Polymers like polyethylene is a linear chain where hundreds of CH2 are linked together.
