According to Lambert's Law of Absorption, the Percentage of Incident

question 55

Short Answer

According to Lambert's law of absorption, the percentage of incident light L, absorbed in passing through a thin layer of material x, is proportional to the thickness of the material. If in. of a certain material reduces the light to half of its intensity, how much additional material is needed to reduce the intensity to one-fourth of its initial value?
