Solar Water Heater-
Question-
If we use black plastic instead of white to use as a inner coat of the container and put water in it will the black plastic heat faster than white? Covered or uncovered?
Hypothesis-
I think...If the black water heater is in the sun it will then heat the fastest.
Results-
The covered black solar water heater increased four degrees, which was the highest.
Conclusion-
The black covered water heaters heat water the fastest.
Changes for next Time-
You could make a funnel shape water heater instead of what we used. I think the funnel shaped water heater would heat the fastest because it might attract more light.
New Questions-
Would it work better if you had a funnel shape?
