The the percentage change in the intensity is option 2. decreases by 3%

Explanation :

We know that the intensity of light is inversely proportional to the square of distance.

I ∝ 1/d²

=> I₂/I₁ = (d₁/d₂)²

let d₁ = 100

=> d₂ = 101.5

=> I₂/I₁ = (100/101.5)² = 0.97

=> I₂ = 0.97 I₁

hence the percentage change can be given as

=> (I₂ - I₁)/I₁ = -0.03 = -3%

Hence the the percentage change in the intensity is option 2. decreases by 3%
