What is the intensity of the light falling on the center of the screen?b. What is the intensity of light falling on the edge of the screen?Formula:E = I/d^2
Where :
E = is the intensity of the light on the object,lux (lx) or foot candleI = is the intensity of the light at the source,lumen (lm)d = is the distance of the light source from the object,meters or ft.
