Question

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:   

Solution

Correct option is

When the aperture is reduced to (d/2), the intensity entering the camera becomes one-fourth. So, the exposure time should be 4 times, i.e., 4 fold.
