Q: Name the instrument which is used by meteorologists to measure the hemispherical area of incidence of solar radiation on a flat surface?
  • A. Hygrameter
  • B. Anemometer
  • C. Pyranometer
  • D. Barometer
Correct Answer: Option C - Pyranometer is used by meterologists to measure the hemispherical area of incidence of solar radiation on a flat surface. Solar power systems radiations generally measured in the kilowatt-hour per square metre (KwH/m²).
