atmospheric perspective :P
The difference is that intensity is the extent of damage released by an earthquake and is measured differently at different places depending on its distance from the epicenter while the magnitude is the amount of energy released by an earthquake and it has a fixed energy as it is released by an earthquake.
Yes, bar scales are used to convert map distance to ground distance.
A map scale lets you convert map distance to ground distance.
the image distance will appear the same
Apart from sketch maps, maps are to scale. The distance on a map is a ratio of the distance in the real world.
Light intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: I = k/d2
- 6 dB is incorrect. It will decrease by 12 dB.
The source doesn't care how far you are from it, or whether you're even there, andthere's no relationship between that and the intensity of the radiation it gives off.However, the intensity of the radiation that you receivefrom it is inversely proportionalto the square of your distance from it ... same math as for gravity.
No, it follows the inverse square law. That is, the intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. I2/I1 = (r1/r2)². Intensity decreases with 1/r² from increased distance, while the sound pressure decreases only with 1/r from increased distance.
The Conservation of Energy or power Law. This gives the inverse distance law of Intensity: Intensity on Earth = intensity on sun (radius/sun distance to earth)2 .
The intensity reduces in proportion to the square of your distance from the source.
Its loudness at a particular distance
That depends on the sound intesity level at the point of origen. Sound fall of with the square of the distance but the original intensity must be known.
It's an inverse-square law - for instance, double the distance, and the intensity will be reduced by a factor 1/4.This assumes that there is nothing absorbing the light (for instance, fog); if there is, the intensity in the above example will of course be even less than 1/4 the original intensity.
Speed = Distance/Time
The intensity increases by a factor of 4-APEX
The intensity of a sound will decrease according to an inverse square law.
