Examples in Context

  1. The basal thermal radiation experiments including intensity of thermal radiation, inverse square law and Stefan Boltzmann law have been studied using PASCO thermal radiation system. The experimental result is fitted, and it is in good agreement with theoretical values.
  2. The dose attenuation of source in air is different from the calculated results by inverse square law correction within 4? cm. The deviation is less than 3 %, within 4 cm but it increased with the increase of source distance.
  3. Correction to inverse square law can be calculated precisely with data obtained from the spherical ionization chambers exposed to fine collimated γ ray beam.
  4. The experimental results show that a single-frequency continuous wave does decay as the inverse square law of the distance ( r ~ ( - 2 )) alter the Rayleigh distance, and in contrast, a pulsed EM wave decreases more slowly as r ~ ( - 2 (?)
  5. Based on the theorems of momentum and angular momentum, a new method for determining the orbit in central force field of inverse & square law is given by the transformation of unit vectors in two coordinate systems.
