	The inverse square law		2018-06-05
		From Amy: Question about inverse square law ; Hi, I'm trying to understand some nuances about this law and have been reading about it a lot online and trying out some homework for personal interest (hobby ) - not school related. I understand that the simple formula is ; 1/d^2 I was wondering about what appears to be an oddity to me, that I came across when I was working with a test example I found at this link ; http://www.softschools.com/formulas/physics/inverse_square_law_formula/82/ The problem that caught my interest was this one on that page ; "1) If a bright flashlight has a light intensity of 15.0 candela at a distance 1.00 m from the lens, what is the intensity of the flashlight 100.0 m from the lens?" So I have a few different questions about this, but the most important one is, what does it mean if we replace the "1" in ; 1/d^2 with a different value such as a ratio in the form of a decimal value, so instead we have something like this ; 0.75/d^2 ??? Does this ratio represent a curve then? I am thinking that the "1" in the normal formula represents a straight line Some of the links I was researching ; http://wisptools.net/book.php?c=3&s=2 http://www.softschools.com/formulas/physics/inverse_square_law_formula/82/ https://www.nde-ed.org/GeneralResources/Formula/RTFormula/InverseSquare/InverseSquareLaw.htm Answered by Penny Nom.

	A square corner		2010-02-11
		From Trevor: I am building a new house and wish to set it out on site with the use of profile boards and string. I want to be certain it is correct in terms of squareness. I have a vague idea that the square on the hypotenuse should be equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. I get a little lost here and need some help. The building is a rectangle measuring 40x30 feet to exterior brickwork. I guess that the length of the hypotenuse should be exactly the square root of the combined squares of the two sides. Using the above measurements could you give me calculations from nuts to soup as to the correct length of the diagonal. And what adjustments are needed if everthing is not in accord. Trevor.

	Measuring the fourth dimension		1999-06-07
		From Suzanne Hall: Hi! The other day, two of my students asked a very interesting question: Is the fourth dimension measured with hypercubes? Their reasoning went like this: Lines are 1D and are measured with line segments, which are part of a line. Planes are 2D and are measured with squares, which are part of a plane. Space is 3D and is measured with cubes, which are part of space. So, logically, hypercubes would be used to measure the fourth dimension. Answered by Chris Fisher.
