As light moves through the air, it slowly diminishes, until it finally disappears. When light bounces of any object, light turns to colour. Objects become dimmer because the further back it moves, the more coloured light diminishes, causing the object to look dimmer in light and colour.

RossObjects become dimmer with distance because light spreads out as it travels further, resulting in the same amount of light being spread over a larger area, which reduces its intensity at any given point. This phenomenon is known as the inverse square law of light propagation, which states that the intensity of light decreases by the square of the distance from the source.

Why does objects become dimmer with distance?
Objects appear dimmer with distance because the same amount of light spreads out over a larger area as it travels away from the source. This leads to a lower concentration of light reaching our eyes, making the object seem less bright. Additionally, atmospheric conditions such as dust, pollution, and water vapor can scatter and absorb light, further contributing to the dimming effect.
Determined by the distance between objects and the difference in mass between the objects?
The gravitational force between objects is determined by their masses and the distance between them. The force increases with the mass of the objects and decreases with the distance between them.
What factors determine the force of gravity between two objects?
the mass of the objects and the distance of the objects
What happen to the shadow if the light get dimmer?
If the light gets dimmer, the shadow will become less defined and appear lighter. As the light source decreases in intensity, the shadow cast by the object will become less sharp and more diffused.
What is the distance between to objects?
To calculate the distance between two objects, you need to know their respective positions in a specific coordinate system. Then, you can use a distance formula, such as the Euclidean distance formula in Cartesian coordinates, to determine the distance between the two objects.
