Students have asked these similar questions
The intensity of light from a central source varies inversely as the square of the distance. If you lived on a planet only half as far from the Sun as our Earth, how would Sun’s light intensity compare with that on Earth? How about a planet 10 times farther away than Earth?
I got the answer wrongly. Would anyone be able to explain the reason behind this??
Can you solve the question in the pictures shown?
