[RPMT 2002]

Options:

A) Increase

B) Decrease

C) Remain constant

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$ A=n\pi d^2\lambda $

$ \Rightarrow nd=\frac{A}{\pi \lambda } $ = constant

$ \Rightarrow n\propto \frac{1}{d} $

$ (n= $ number of blocked $ HPZ) $ on decreasing $ d, $

$ n $ increases, hence intensity decreases.
