Will doubling the source of radioactivity halve the radiation intensity?

No, doubling the source of radioactivity will not halve the radiation intensity. Radiation intensity is directly proportional to the amount of radioactive material present. So doubling the source will double the radiation intensity.


What is the relationship between the intensity of radiation and the distance from the source, as described by the k square law?

The relationship between the intensity of radiation and the distance from the source, as described by the inverse square law, states that the intensity of radiation decreases as the distance from the source increases. This means that the further away you are from the source of radiation, the lower the intensity of radiation you will be exposed to.


Are curling irons a source of radiation?

What is the relationship between the intensity of the radiation given off from a radiation source and distance from the radiation source?

The source doesn't care how far you are from it, or whether you're even there, andthere's no relationship between that and the intensity of the radiation it gives off.However, the intensity of the radiation that you receivefrom it is inversely proportionalto the square of your distance from it ... same math as for gravity.
