It is estimated that per minute each cm^(2) of earth receives about 2 calorie of heat energy from the sun. This constant is called solar constant S. Express solar constant in SI units.

Amount of solar energy received on the earth's surface area per unit area per unit time is defined a solar constant. Dimension of solar constant is :

The solar constant is defined as the energy incident per unit area per second. The dimensional formula for solar constant is

Solar constant (S) depends upon the temperature of the Sun

It the absolute temperature of sun increased by 2% then the value solar constant will change by
