Climate Chaos

Written: By Cody

Title	Solar energy
Aim	To see what colour attracts the most heat
Hypothesis	I think that the colour black attracts the most heat because it absorbs everything coming in from the sun and the darkest colour.
Materials	1 White piece of paper 1 White cup 1 Black piece of plastic 1  clear cup and Black cover Piece of tinfoil Cup covered in tinfoil Heat lamp 100mls of water in each cup thermometer And a timer
Steps	Step 1 Go to the teacher and get the material Step 2 Get plastic cup with tinfoil on it  Step 3 get a foam cup and a clear cup  Step 4 Find a place to plug your heat lamp in  Step 5 full all of your cups up with 100mls of water   Step 6 Get a thermometer Step 7 cheek your temputer every 15 minutes
Data/Findings	Findings: Time  Cup 1 White Cup 2 Black Cup 3 Tinfoil 0 16 16 16 15 20 25 19 30 20 35 20 45 20 30 20 What happened in the plain plastic cup for 15 minutes it was 20 then 30 minutes was 20 then45 minutes was 20 again What happened for the black cup was 15 minutes was 25 then 30 minutes was 35 then 45 minutes was 30.
Conclusion	In Conclusion my findings in this experiment state that black attracts the most heat because A black object absorbs all wavelengths of light and converts them into heat, so the object gets warm. Over in hotter countries, they don’t want to paint there houses black because it attracts the most heat so they paint their house white or silver.
