1. A source of 5000 lumen is suspended 6.1 m. above ground. Find out the illumination (i)
at a point just below the lamp and (ii) at a point 12.2 m away from the first, assuming
uniform distribution of light from the source.

2. Determine the average illumination of a room measuring 9.15 m by 12.2 m illuminated


by a dozen 150 W lamps. The luminous efficiency of lamps may be taken as 14 lm/W
and the co-efficient of utilization as 0.35.

3. Two lamps are hung at a height of 9 m from the floor level. The distance between the
lamps is one meter. Lamp one is of 500 candela. If the illumination on the floor
vertically below this lamp is 20 lux, find the candle power of the lamp number two.
