The intensity of light I through a lake at a depth of x meters is given by the following formula. dI/dx = (-2.31)I a.) At what depth is the intensity of the light half that of the intensity at the surface, I00? b.) At 5 meters deep, what is the intensity of the light as a fraction of I0? c.) How many meters deep will the intensity of light be 1 percent of the intensity of the light at the surface? Remember that the depth at the surface is x = 0.

A light beam with an irradiance of 2.50 * 10(^6) W/m(^2) impinges normally on a surface that reflects 70.0% and absorbs 30.0%. Compute the resulting radiation pressure on the surface.

The intensity L(x) of light x feet beneath the surface of the ocean satisfies the differential equation dL/dx=-kL. From experience, a diver knows that diving to 19 ft in a sea cuts the intensity in half. He cannot work without artifical light when the intensity falls below one-fifth of the surface value. About how deep can he expect to work without artifical light? round to the nearest tenth
