Question
Bolometer is used to measure
–Solution
A bolometer is a device for measuring the power of incident electromagnetic radiation via the heating of a material with a temperature-dependent electrical resistance. IL was invented in 1878 by the American astronomer Samuel Pierpont Langley. A bolometer consists of an absorptive element, such as a thin layer of metal, connected to a thermal reservoir (a body of constant temperature) through a thermal link.
