Description

This lecture discusses the behavior of polarized light passing through polarizers with different orientations, leading to changes in intensity and polarization. It also covers the concept of black body radiation, exploring how the temperature of a block can be determined based on the power absorbed and emitted. Additionally, the Rayleigh criterion is explained in the context of resolving point objects using diffraction. Practical calculations and applications are presented throughout the lecture.
