CurrentUse: Historically used to measure the brightness of light sources. It has largely been replaced by the modern unit of luminous intensity, the candela, in the SI system.
funfact: The international candle was one of the first standardized units for measuring light intensity and played a key role in the development of modern photometry.
decimal candle
Definition: A historical unit of luminous intensity, representing one-tenth of a standard candle.
Historyandorigin: The decimal candle was used in early systems of light measurement, where it served as a more practical unit for certain applications, particularly for comparing light sources.
CurrentUse: This unit is no longer in use and has been replaced by modern SI units.
