If you assume Earth has no atmosphere, the intensity of the solar radiation available on a surface at right angles to the Sun's rays is 2 calories per square centimeter per minute. This value is known as the ______.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Solar constant - Heat flux density.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solar constant (GSC) is a flux density measuring mean solar electromagnetic radiation (solar irradiance) per unit area. It is also defined as the rate at which solar radiation is received on a unit surface that is perpendicular to the direction of incident radiation just outside Earth's atmosphere at Earth's mean distance from the Sun; equal to 2 cal/cm^2.min.
