A
A law that states that the intensity of light decreases as the square of the distance from the source increases.
💡 Explanation:
The inverse square law states that the intensity of light decreases as the square of the distance from the source increases. This means that if you double the distance between a light source and an object, the amount of light that reaches the object will be reduced by a factor of four.
