Explain your answers.

I own a hotel and I want you to install a light for me along the long corridor. The guests don’t like walking from their room to the end of the corridor in darkness.

I want you to install lights so that I can see when I walk up the stairs. I have no lights on the stairs at the moment and it is a health hazard as I keep falling.

I want a very bright light in my study so that I can read easily and also lights outside my study so that people know I am working in there.

I want to put lots of lights around my workshop but they all need to be very bright so that I can see my work.
