Inverse Square Law of Light states that light intensity falls off rapidly with distance from its source. T<span>he intensity varies with the square of the flash-to-subject distance.
 intensity at distance 1/intensity at distance 2=distance2^2/distance1^2
In our case, distance1=10m and distance2=20m, 20^2/10^2= 400/100=4, which means that t</span>he intensity of the wave<span> has increased by a factor of four.

Which of these forms of radiation passes most easily through the disk of the Milky Way?
Rama09 [41]
<h2>Answer: 3 - infrared light</h2>

Explanation:

<u>There are certain areas of the Milky Way that cannot be observed using the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum</u> (this includes blue light and red light). This is because these areas are covered or hidden behind columns of interstellar dust and dark matter.

However, using infrared light and sometimes radio waves, it is possible to observe the galaxy better, because this light manages to pass through all that interstellar dust.

Group the labels according to the type of force they describe<br> Contact, no contact or both
Jobisdone [24]

We can confirm that a contact force would be one in which physical contact is needed, while a no contact force does not require contact.

<h3>What are some examples of these forces?</h3>

There are many everyday examples to be used to describe each of these forces. A very common no contact force is gravity. The Earth's gravity exerts a force on all things near the planet, but it does not need to be in physical contact to exert this force, thus making gravity a no contact force. An example of a contact force would be if you were to push another person. You are exerting a force that <u>requires </u>physical contact.

Therefore, we can confirm that a contact force would be one in which physical contact is needed, while a no contact force does not require contact.
