Problem How does the color of an object affect the amount of radiant energy absorbed?

Research Energy- measured in joules (SI units). Defined as the ability to create change. Radiant energy is transmitted as a wave. It can be found in the electromagnetic spectrum. It is measured by the emission of electrons. Photon- Under the photon theory of light, is a quantum, a discrete bundle, of electromagnetic energy. Photons travel at 3 x 10 8 m/s. Electron- a subtonic particle that is a fundamental constituent of matter.

Electronic energy- the energy of many trillions of photons when sunlit hits a surface. Infrared photons- the form of energy re-emitted from the electrons as they return to the energy level they were at before they absorbed protons. Infrared proton- the emission of energy.

Hypothesis If the infrared temperature of each color is taken, then the darker colors such as black and blue will absorb more radiant energy than lighter colors such as red, yellow, and white.

Materials Scissors Colored Construction Paper White, Yellow, Red, Blue, and Black Styrofoam plates Infrared thermometer

Procedure 1. Cut out a 10 centimeter construction paper square of each of the following colors: white, yellow, blue, red, and black. 2. Placed the squares in a location where they were in the sunlight, not touching each other. a. Placed the squares on a white surface. b. There were not any shadows over the paper. c. The squares were protected from any breezes. 3. Made a note of the time and date in lab notebook. 4. Waited for 5 minutes so that the temperatures of the squares become stable. 5. Took the temperature of each square with the infrared thermometer, five times over a time period of about 5 minutes. 6. Recorded the data in a data table in lab notebook. 7. Averaged the results for each colored square.

Variables Independent: color papers Dependent: infrared temperature Control: white paper Constants: size of papers, time of day, and location

Data

Conclusion If the infrared temperature of each color is taken, then the darker colors such as black and blue will absorb more radiant energy than lighter colors such as red, yellow, and white. The hypothesis was supported. Possible errors are the Styrofoam could have absorbed heat. The glass could have filtered some of the light. Possible ways to further improve this experiment are to test secondary colors, different mediums.
