Question 239293: When light strikes the surface of a medium such as water or glass, its intensity decreases with depth. The beer-lambert-bougar law states that the percentage of decrease is the same for each additional unit of depth. In a certain lake, intensity decreases about 75% for each additionial meter of depth.
a) Explain why intensity I is an exponential function of depth d in meters
b) Use a formula to express intensity I as an exponential function of d. (use I0 to denote the initial intensity.)
c) Explain in practical terms the meaning of I0.
d) At what depth will the intensity of light be one tenth of the intensity of light striking the surface?
