What percentage of energy striking the outer atmosphere of the earth reaches its surface ?
EXPLANATION
Biodiesel Properties & Engine Performance
- Terrestrial Solar Energy Partitioning Budget:
- Planetary Energy Balance:
- Out of $100\%$ extraterrestrial solar radiation intercepting the outer atmosphere of Earth:
- $30\%$ is reflected directly back into space (planetary albedo: $23\%$ by clouds and atmospheric aerosols, $7\%$ by ground surface).
- $23\%$ is absorbed in the atmosphere (by ozone, water vapor, and aerosols).
- The remaining $47\%$ reaches and is absorbed directly by Earth's land and ocean surfaces ($31\%$ direct beam radiation and $16\%$ diffuse radiation).
- Conclusion: 47% (Option 4).
Correct option: (4) 47%
