Question 1196612: The intensity I of the light produced by a light source varies inversely as the square of the distance from the source; that is (I =K/d2). If the intensity of light produced 5ft from the light source is 600 ft-candles, what is the model of the intensity I of light as a function of distance from the source?
(Clue: Solve for the value of k (constant) first and then utilize the stated relation/formula)
