Inverse square law: \frac{I_{2} }{I_{1}}= (\frac{d{2} }{d_{1}})^2
where 
I_{1} is the intensity at distance 1
I_{2} is the intensity at distance 2
d_{1} is distance 1
d_{2} is distance 2

The inverse squared law state that intensity decreases in inverse proportion to the distance squared. So if light obeyed that rule, it will decreases its intensity as the square of the distance increases.

We can conclude that the correct answer is: true.

g a horizontal wheel of radius is rotating about a vertical axis. What is the magnitude of the resultant acceleration of a bug t
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

   a = w² r

Explanation:

In this exercise, indicate that the wheel has angular velocity w, the worm experiences the same angular velocity if it does not move, and has an acceleration towards the center of the circle, according to Newton's second law, called the centripetal acceleration.

           a = v² / r

angular and linear variables are related

           v = w r

we substitute

          a = w² r

where r is the radius of the wheel

If two stars are the same size and one is twice the temperature of the other, how much more luminous is the hotter one? quizlit
Dmitriy789 [7]
The hotter star will be 16 times more luminous  - luminosity depends on two things  - the size of the star and the temperature of the star. The hotter a star is, the more energy it will give out. This will give rise to greater luminosity.
