What is the significance of the inverse-square law?
Its the earth, wind and the fire
What does the inverse-square law tell you about the relationship between force and distance?
The inverse-square law applies to gravitational and electrical forces. An inverse-square law tells you:That the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.That means that if the distance is increased by a factor "n", the force is decreased by a factor "n2".For example, if you increase the distance by a factor of 10, the force will decrease by a factor of 102 = 10 x 10 = 100.
The amplitude of a wave from a point source decreases as the inverse square of the distance fron the source?
yes... its true...the inverse square law is universal. it can be applied to gravity between two objects, the electric force between 2 charges etc...
What is inverse square law and an example?
inverse square law is the law that states the intensity of the light, sound etc is directly proportional to 1/ distance squared meaning the further you are from the source the less intense the light etc will be. e.g. an object 1m away from a light source 1/1^2=1 , 2m 1/2^2= 1/4 and so forth
Is the square root of 81 and the square root of 92 inverse operations?
No.
