The radiation which penetrates to the Earth's surface is termed direct solar radiation.

A thermopile pyranometer is a type of actinometer used for measuring solar radiation on a planar surface and it is designed to measure the solar radiation flux density (W/m2) from the hemisphere above within a wavelength range 0.3 μm to 3 μm.

Answer 1)  

1/3 x (54 x 150 + 60 x 300 + 36 x 450)

= 1/3 x 42300

= 14100.
