Conclusion

 

My conclusion is that my hypothesis was incorrect. As the distance increased, the light intensity did not decrease according to the Inverse Square Law. After I had completed the experiment, I found out that the Inverse Square Law only occurs in darkness. I did the experiment in the dark, but not in  pure darkness. Also my hypothesis was wrong, because the energy saving light bulb didn’t have the same light intensity as the 60 watt light bulb.
