Electromagnetic Waves · EM waves
A point light source emits E.M. waves in free space. A detector, placed at a distance of L m, measures the intensity as . The detector is now shifted to another location on the same spherical surface ensuring the angle between original location and new location as . The measured intensity at new location will be .
