PhysicsElectromagnetic WavesJEE Main 2026

A point light source emits E.M. waves in free space. A detector, placed at a distance of L m, measures the intensity as I₀. The detector is now shifted to another location on the same spherical surface ensuring the angle between original location and new location as 45°. The measured intensity at new location will be .

Answer: (B)

Solution

A point source radiates isotropically, so intensity depends only on distance from the
