Principle:
The luminous intensity emitted by a
punctual source is determined as a
function of distance.
Experimental objective:
The luminous intensity is a function
of the distance of the light sensor
from the light source. The law for
point light sources on which this is
based should be determined.

Equation (5) describes the photometric law of distance. Analysis of the measurement
According to this, the illuminance E of a surface decreases For the analysis of the results convert the measured value
proportionally to the square of distance r for constant luminous number into the actual distance. Select the following parame-
