As light travels in an absorbing medium, the rate of decrease in intensity is proportional to the intensity at that point. The intensity as a function of distance traveled in the medium is then O an exponential function of distance. O a sine or cosine function of distance. O proportional to the distance. O proportional to 1/distance.
