question 2 / 10
decreasing the source - to - image distance (sid) will result in which of the following?
increased production of photons
decreased concentration of photons
increased concentration of photons
decreased production of photons
The intensity of radiation (number of photons per unit area) follows the inverse - square law. When the source - to - image distance (SID) decreases, the same number of photons are spread over a smaller area, increasing the concentration of photons. The production of photons is related to the source characteristics and not directly to SID.
