Point source
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
A point source may be
- a source of light that is treated as having no physical extension, or
- a source in fluid flow, or in electrostatics, or
- a source of pollution coming from a single cause, such as a municipal plant.
- a stone thrown into water generating waves
In general the energy of other emission of a point source will radiate in a circle (in water) or as a sphere.
