Solar radiation instruments may be produced to measure different types of solar energy. When sunlight encounters the Earth's atmosphere, some of it is absorbed or scattered by water vapor, aerosols, clouds, and other air molecules. 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.

An Egg is more useful when it is broken than it is not.

The HF band is based on frequencies 3 to 30 Mhz. AM radio stations are in the HF band but normally are stated in kilohertz.

Air Pressure can be defined as the pressure of air in the earth's atmosphere. It reaches a maximum of about 100,000 Pa near sea level and decreases as altitude increases.

The barometer is an instrument which is used for measuring Air pressure.

Physics instruments and their uses:

Barkometer  - - - Tanning liquors used in tanning leather

Bolometer  - - - Electromagnetic radiation

Spectrometer - - -  Properties of light.

Bengaluru city is known as the Electronic City of India. Because Electronic City is an IT hub in Anekal taluk of Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. It is one of India's largest electronic industrial parks in 3 phases i.e, in Konappana Agrahara and Doddathogur villages, Bengaluru.

We know that, any decimal number when multiplied by the multiples of 10, the decimal point moves to right the number of zeroes in the multiplying number.

For example :: 

0.0410 x 100 = 4.10 (Number of zeros in 100 are 2. So, the decimal point in 0.0410 moves two places to the right and becomes 4.10.)

Similarly, here in the option C) 5.008 x 10^3 kms it makes 5008 kms as the number of zeros in 10^3  i.e,  1000 are 3 and 5.008 becomes 5008.
