I have UV blubs of a 1000 µW cm-2 , can i reduce the intensity of the light to 650 µW cm-2 which my experimental cells will be exposed to by changing the distance from the source of light ? If yes how ?
Yes you can. The intensity of different light sources changes in the same way. The intensity of light is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. That is the equation you are going to use, when I (Intensity) and d (distance):
