As the light intensity increases, the rate of photosynthesis will increase and then level off no matter how much brighter the light gets. This is because another limiting factor such as carbon dioxide or water level stops it.

If the light gets too bright the heat can burn the leaves.

What happens if you continue to increase the intensity of light that plants receives?

If the plant has enough chloroplast to accept the light intensity, it'll continue to grow strong accordingly. It'll develop stronger leaves, stem, and darker in green color foliages. It'll reach a peak where light saturation occur when the plant no longer can grow any stronger even with higher light intensity. Increasing the light intensity further could hurt the plant.

What happens if you place a thermometer in any wavelength of visible spectrum?

Depending on the intensity of the light the thermometer should indicate an increase in temperature.


What happens when you increase electromagnetic wave?

To increase the intensity, if that's what you mean, more energy is required. That would also mean that the electromagnetic wave carries more energy.


What happens to the intensity of ionizing radiation when you move away?

The intensity reduces in proportion to the square of your distance from the source.

What happens to the solar energy that planets receive from the sun when you move further in to the solar system?

Since intensity of the radiation emanating from the sun is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from it, if you half the distance between us and the sun, the intensity would increase by a factor of 4. put simply, the closer you get to the sun, the hotter it is.
