Two Polaroids P1{P}_{1}P1​ and P2{P}_{2}P2​ are placed with their axis perpendicular to each other. Unpolarised light with intensity I0{I}_{0}I0​ is incident on P1{P}_{1}P1​. A third polaroid P3{P}_{3}P3​ is kept in between P1{P}_{1}P1​ and P2{P}_{2}P2​ such that its axis makes an angle 45o{45}^{\text{o}}45o with that of P1{P}_{1}P1​. The intensity of transmitted light through P2{P}_{2}P2​ is
