A beam of unpolarized light of intensity \(I_0\) is passed first through a tourmaline crystal \(A\) and then through another tourmaline crystal \(B\) oriented so that its principal plane is parallel to that of \(A\). The intensity of the final emergent light is \(I\)The value of \(I\) is:
1. \(I_0\) 2. \(\dfrac{I_0}{2}\)
3. \(\dfrac{I_0}{4}\) 4. \(\dfrac{I_0}{8}\)

In Young's double-slit experiment, an electron beam is used to obtain an interference pattern. If the speed of electrons is increased:

1. No interference pattern will be observed.
2. Distance between two consecutive fringes remains the same.
3. Distance between two consecutive fringes will decrease.
4. Distance between two consecutive fringes will increase.
