the inverse square law applies to the intensity of light but also to gravitational and electrical forces

Since the intensity of light area increases as the square of the distance, the intensity of the light must decrease as the inverse square of the distance. Thus, intensity follows the inverse-square law.
The force of attraction or repulsion between two electrically charged particles, in addition to being directly proportional to the product of the electric charges, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them; this is known as Coulomb's law.

Do you have any videos that can explain this? Sorry, my brain has difficulty processing this information/model/formula.

what's the point of posting about the inverse square law because I like physics and you can't do physics without the inverse square law

No you'll have to do your own research if you want to learn more

Thanks. I tried YouTube. I'm not smart enough.
