Inverse-square law

ID: inverse-square-law

The inverse-square law is a fundamental principle in physics that describes how the intensity of a physical quantity decreases as the distance from the source increases. Specifically, it states that the intensity of such a quantity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. This means that if you double the distance from the source, the intensity becomes one-fourth as strong.
