Question

importance of insolation​

Answer 1

Explanation:

When solar radiation hits an object, some of the energy will be absorbed while the rest is reflected. Thus understanding insolation (the amount of energy that hits an area) is important in maximizing the output of solar panels, which absorb and convert this energy.

Answer 2

Answer:

Insolation affects temperature. The more the insolation, the higher the temperature. Thus understanding insolation (the amount of energy that hits an area) is important in maximizing the output of solar panels which absorb and convert this energy.

Explanation:

Insolation is solar radiation received in the Earth's atmosphere or at its surface. Only approximately 52 per cent of this insolation reaches the earth's surface. The rest is absorbed by water vapor, dust and clouds, or is reflected by the Earth's surface and scattered by particles in the air.
