Photometry: The measurement of light as perceived by human eye is called photometry. Photometry is measurement of a physiological phenomenon, being the stimulus of light as received by the human eye, transmitted by the optic nerves and analysed by the brain. The main physical quantities in photometry are (i) the luminous intensity of the source, (ii) the luminous flux or flow of light from the source and (iii) illuminance of the surface. The SI unit of luminous intensity (I) is candela (cd). The candela is the luminous intensity, in a given direction, of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 xx 10^12 Hz and that has a radiant intensity in that direction of 1/683 watt per steradian. If a light source emits one candela of luminous intensity into a solid angle of one steradian, the total luminous flux emitted solid angle is one lumen (1m). A standa o incandescent light bulb emits approximately 1700 lumens. Unit of luminous flux is:

A point source is suspended at a hight h = 1.0 m over the centre of a round table of radius R = 1.0 m . The luminous intensity I of the source depends on direction so that illuminance at all points of the table is the same. Find the function I (theta) , where theta is the angle between the radiation direction and the vertical, as well as the luminous flux reaching the table if I (0) = I_(0) = 100 cd .
