Polarization: Unpolarized light of intensity I0 passes through four ideal polarizing sheets. The polarizing angle of each sheet is rotated 30° from the one before it, so that the last sheet is aligned at 90° to the first sheet. What is the intensity of the light emerging from the fourth sheet in terms of I0?

A. The internal (thermal) energy of the gas in both flasks is the same. B. The internal (thermal) energy of the gas in the larger flask is greater than the internal (thermal) energy of the gas in the smaller flask. C. The internal (thermal) energy of the gas in the smaller flask is greater than the internal (thermal) energy of the gas in the larger flask. D. The molecules in the larger flask have the same root-mean-square speed as those in the smaller flask. E. The molecules in the smaller flask have the same average kinetic energy per molecule as those in the larger flask.
