Inverse Square Law: Heat Radiation Decreases With Distance

According to the inverse square law of heat radiation, the intensity of heat radiation received at a given point from a source decreases proportionally to the square of the distance between the source and the point. This law helps explain how heat radiates from sources, with intensity inversely proportional to the distance squared. It’s important in thermal engineering, radiation heat transfer, and astrophysics for understanding stellar radiation.
