MCQ
A camera objective has an aperture diameter $d.$ If the aperture is reduced to diameter $d/2,$ the exposure time under identical conditions of light should be made
  • A
    $\sqrt 2 fold$
  • B
    $2 fold$
  • C
    $2\sqrt 2 fold$
  • $4 fold$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$4 fold$
d
(d) Time of exposure $ \propto \frac{1}{{{{(Aperture)}^2}}}$
