Assume that the emission of photon from a source of radiation is random in direction. Would you expect the intensity (or energy density) to vary inversely as the square of the distance from the source in the photon theory as it does in the wave theory?

Question

unklerhaukus · Answer

a single photon or a wave front ?

anonymous · Answer

both...., the relationship of these two theories

unklerhaukus · Answer

well each photon dosent change energy,
but as a buch, they spread out  and become less dense
