A mixture of plane polarised and unpolarised light falls normally on a polarizing sheet. On rotating the polarizing sheet about the direction of the incident beam, the transmitted intensity varies by a factor of 3. The ratio of intensities and of the polarised and unpolarised components in the incident beam is

Answer: (A)
