A point source of light moves in a straight line parallel to a plane table. Consider a small portion of the table directly below the line of movement of the source. The illuminance at this portion varies with its distance r from the source as:

  1. $\text{I}\propto\frac{1}{\text{r}}$

  2. $\text{I}\propto\frac{1}{\text{r}^2}$

  3. $\text{I}\propto \frac{1}{\text{r}^3}$
