Explanation
Absorptive power refers to the fraction of the total incident energy that a body absorbs. It quantifies how much energy is taken in compared to what falls on the surface. Emissive power and emissivity relate to energy emitted by the body, while absorptivity is a similar concept but not the exact term used here.
