The intensity of solar radiation at the top of Earth's atmosphereis1340 W/m2. Assuming that 50%of the incoming solar energyreaches Earth's surface and assumingthat you absorb 50% of thatincident energy, estimate the amount ofsolar energy you absorb in a60 minute sunbath. Assume that you arelying flat on the ground andthat you have an effective area of1.70 m by 0.3 m and that thesun's angleof elevation is 60°above the horizon (draw a picture ifyouneed to.).
