Question

Factors that affect the light intensity received from a source

Answer 1

Light intensity and distance is interrelated. When the distance changes, the intensity of light changes. This relationship is called inverse-square relationship. The inverse-square relationship refers to the fact that when distance changes, light intensity also changes: inverse because when distance decreases, light density increases and when distance increases, the latter decreases; square refers to the fact that light intensity and distance is not a one-to-one relationship.
