When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity I decreases is proportional to I(t), where t represents the thickness of the medium (in feet). In clear seawater, the intensity 3 feet below the surface is 25% of the initial intensity I0 of the incident beam. What is the intensity of the beam 13 feet below the surface? (Give your answer in terms of I0. Round any constants or coefficients to five...

Consider how the intensity of light changes as it passes between two Polaroid disks at different angles to each other. (For this scenario, suppose that the polaroid closest to the light source remains fixed with the zero degree marking pointing straight up. Therefore, the second Polaroid disk is the one being rotated, and the angles for the graph should be the angle between the zero degree marking of the first disk and the position of the second disk. ) a....
