Solar Cooker Project

Question and Hypothesis                                                 solor_cook.jpg

    My qestion was would my solor cooker work better with or without the brick.
    My hypothesis was that my solor cooker would work better with the block.


Scientific Procedures
   
    1. First we picked a type of solar cooker ro make ours like.

    2. Then we designed the solor cooker to our liking.
    3. We destided our solor cooker for ten minutes recording our answer.
    4. Then we tested the solor cookers again canging somnthing about them or compairing         our data to someone elses.

Conclusion

    After all the testing my results led to, my solor cooker works better with the brick on it. It startded at a higher degrees, but rose slower and reached a lower temperature. Without the block on my solor cooker it would not increase as fast and hit a lower temperature. The clowds out side the brightness of the sun and the tumperature out side could hve also affected how well the solor cooker did. My solor cooker might have work better without the black paper under the fiol on the bottom
