Explanation:
Illuminance is given by:
$\text{E}=\frac{\text{l}_{\text{o}}\cos\theta}{\text{r}^2}$
$\theta=0^0$
$\frac{\triangle\text{r}}{\text{r}}=1\%$
$\text{E}=\frac{\text{l}_{\text{o}}}{\text{r}^2}$
Differentiating,
$\text{dE}=-2\frac{\text{l}_{\text{o}}}{\text{r}^3}\text{dr}$
As approximation differentials are replaced by
$\triangle$,$\triangle\text{E}=-2\frac{\text{l}_\text{o}}{\text{r}^2}\triangle \text{r}$
$$$\Rightarrow\triangle\text{E}=-2\frac{\text{I}_\text{o}}{\text{r}^2}\Big(\frac{\triangle\text{r}}{\text{r}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\triangle\text{E}=-2\text{E}\Big(\frac{\triangle\text{r}}{\text{r}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\triangle{\text{E}}}{\text{E}}=-2\Big(\frac{\triangle{\text{r}}}{\text{r}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\triangle\text{E}}{\text{E}}=-2\times1\%=-2\%$
Since, negative sign implies decrease; hence, illuminance decreases by 2%.
$\text{I}\propto\frac{1}{\text{r}}$
$\text{I}\propto\frac{1}{\text{r}^2}$
$\text{I}\propto \frac{1}{\text{r}^3}$
$\text{I}\propto\frac{1}{\text{r}^4}$
Explanation:

Let the distance between the parallel straight lines be L.Angle with normal
$=\theta$We know,
$\text{I}=\frac{\text{I}_\text{o}\cos\theta}{\text{r}^2}$
From the above figure, we get
$\text{I}=\frac{\text{I}_\text{o}\sin(90^0-\alpha)}{\text{r}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\text{I}_\text{o}\sin\alpha}{\text{r}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\text{I}_\text{o}}{\text{r}^\text{2}}\Big(\frac{\text{L}_\text{o}}{\text{r}\text{}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{I_\text{o}}{\text{r}^2}\Big(\frac{\text{L}}{\text{r}}\Big)$
L = constant for parallel moving source
So, IoL
$=\text{K} \big(\text{constant}\big)$$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\text{k}}{\text{r}^3}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}\alpha\frac{1}{\text{r}^3}$
Explanation:
Since the beam is parallel, it will have no angular spread. So the illuminance will remain same throughout. Therefore, in this case, it will be 40 lux.

Here,
$\text{r}=\sqrt{2}$
$\tan\theta=\frac{\text{BC}}{\text{AB}}=1$
$\text{I}_\text{o}=40 \text{ lux}$
$\theta=\tan^{-1}(1)=45^0$
The illluminance is given by,
$\text{E}=\frac{\text{l}_\text{0}\cos(45^0)}{\text{r}^2}$
$=\frac{40\times{\cos(45^0})}{(\sqrt{2})^2}$
$=14 \text{ lux}$
Explanation:
Wavelength of light B is 555nm. It has the highest luminosity; hence, XB will be highest.
Again, 450nm is nearer to 555nm than 700nm.
$\therefore$ 555 - 450 = 105
But 700 - 555 = 145
So, XA's brightness will be greater than that of XC.
Explanation:
Here,
$\text{t}_1=12\text{s}$
$\theta_1=0^0$
$\theta_2=60^0$
$\text{t}_2=?$
Let the distance be r.Let the incident luminosity be Eo.
We have,
$\text{E}_{\theta1}=\frac{\text{E}_\text{o}\cos\theta_1}{\text{r}^2}$
$$$\text{t}_1 \alpha\frac{1}{\text{E}\theta_1}$
$\Rightarrow\text{t}_1=\frac{\text{r}^2\text{k}}{\text{E}_\text{o}\cos\theta_1}$
$\Rightarrow12=\frac{\text{r}^2\text{k}}{\text{E}_\text{o}\cos0}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{r}^2\text{k}}{\text{E}_\text{o}}=12$
Simiolarl
y,$\text{t}_2=\frac{\text{r}^2\text{k}}{\text{E}_\text{o}\cos\theta_2}=\frac{12}{\cos(60^0)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{t}_2=12\times2=24\text{s}$
Explanation:
Explanation:
Brightness depends upon how our eyes perceive light. Our eyes perceive yellow colour the most, so brightness depends upon the colour of the source. Now, colour is related to the wavelength of the source; so, brightness depends upon the wavelength as well.
Our eyes detect brightness by the amount of photons actually reaching our retinas. Again, the number of photons depends upon the power of the source. So, brightness depends upon the power of the source too.

Explanation:
Total luminous flux is the total brightness producing capability of a radiating source. Or, it is the measurement of the total energy entering our eyes that produces the sensation of vision.
$\frac{1}{\text{r}^2}$
$\frac{1}{\text{r}^3}$
$\frac{1}{\text{r}}$
None of these.
Explanation:

Let us consider two coaxial cylindrical surfaces at distances r and r' from the axis.
Let areas dA and dA' subtend the solid angle $\text{d}\omega$ at the central axis.
The height of the area element will be same, i.e. equal to dy.
Let the breath of dA be dx and that of dA' be dx'.
Now from the arcs,
${\text{dx}}=\text{rd}\theta$
$\text{dx} '=\text{r}'\text{d}\theta$
Now,
$\text{dA}'=\text{dxdy}=\text{rd}\theta\text{dy}$
$\text{dA}'=\text{dx}'\text{dy}=\text{r}'\text{d}\theta\text{dy}$
$\frac{\text{dA}}{\text{dA}'}=\frac{\text{r}}{\text{r}'}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dA}}{\text{r}}=\frac{\text{dA}^,}{\text{r}^,}=\text{d}\omega$
The luminous flux going through the solid angle dω will be:
$\text{dF} = \text{I}\text{d}\omega$
Now,
$\text{dF}=\text{I}\frac{\text{dA}}{\text{r}}$
If the surfaces are inclined at an angle
$\alpha,$$\text{dF}=\text{I}\frac{\text{dA}\cos{\alpha}}{\text{r}}$
Now, illuminance is defined as
$\text{E}=\frac{{\text{dF}}}{\text{dA}}=\text{I}\frac{\text{dA}\cos\alpha}{\text{r}}$
$\Rightarrow \text{E}\propto\frac{1}{\text{r}}$
Explanation:
Here,
$\text{d}_1=5\text{cm}= 0.05\text{m}$
$\text{d}_2=10\text{cm}=0.1\text{m}$
$\text{t}_1=3\text{s}$
$\text{t}=?$
Let the actual incident illuminance be Eo
Let the iluminance at 3cm distance be Ed1
Let the iluminance at 10cm distance be Ed2
$\cos\theta=1$
$\text{ E}_\text{d1}=\frac{\text{E}_\text{o}}{\text{d}_1^2}$
Now,
$\text{t}_1\alpha\frac{1}{\text{E}_\text{d1}}$
$\Rightarrow \text{t}_1=\frac{\text{k5}^2}{\text{E}_\text{o}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{k}}{\text{E}_{\text{o}}}=\frac{3}{25}$
Similarly,
$\Rightarrow \text{t}_2=\frac{\text{k10}^2}{\text{E}_\text{o}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{t}_2=\frac{3}{25}\times10^2=12\text{ s}$
Explanation:

Let the illuminance of the candle and the lamp at a distance 1m be IC and
ILrespectively. According to question
$\text{E}=\frac{\text{I}_\text{L}}{(8.0)^2}=\frac{\text{I}_\text{c}}{(0.2)^2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{I}_\text{L}}{\text{I}_\text{c}}=16$
Again after the wrapping the paper around
$\frac{49}{100}\frac{\text{I}_\text{L}}{(0.8+\text{x})^2}=\frac{\text{I}_\text{c}}{(0.2)^2}$
Either,
x = -0.24
or,
x = -1.36 this value is not acceptable because it is more than 0.8
so, x = 0.24m (-ve sign denotes distance is to be decreased).
x = 24cm
$\therefore$ Illuminance due to the 20cd source.
$\text{E}_1=\frac{20}{(0.4)^2}\ \dots(1)$
$\therefore$ Illuminance due to the 80cd source(E2) is:
$\text{E}_2=\frac{80}{\text{d}^2}\ \dots(2)$
As, E1 = E2$\therefore\frac{20}{(0.4)^2}=\frac{80}{\text{d}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{d}=0.8\text{m}=80\text{cm.}$

Explanation:
Here, since B and C have the same distance and lie inclined to make the the same vertical angle with the source, they will have same intensity. But, as A is nearer and forms an angle of 0o with the source, intensity of A will be greater than C or B.
Explanation:
$\frac{\text{I}_1}{\text{I}}=\Big(\frac{80}{20}\Big)^2=16$
According to the question, let the new distance between the lamp and the screen be x such that even after covering the lamp with a thin paper the intensities at the screen is balanced. So,$\frac{0.49\text{I}_1}{\text{I}_2}=\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{20}\Big)^2$
$\Rightarrow0.49\times16\times400=\text{x}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=56\text{cm}$
Thus, the lamp has to be moved by 80cm - 56cm = 24cm.
