Science experiments using solar panels.

Take both groups indoors at 3 26 p m when the sun s rays are still strongly contacting with the solar panels and the bi convex lenses. These long summer days call for kiddie pools and ice cream but they also call out for kids science. Measure the water temperature and set one cup on each paper. Science fair project idea.

Solar cells are devices that can be used as a source of power when there is light shining on them but they stop producing energy when they are not in the light. Record amount of resistance in ohms for both groups. The following easy science experiments for kids will help them look at the sun in a whole new light. Or analyze how solar cells or panels work.

The capacitor stores the energy as an electric field which can be tapped into at any time in or out of light. Have a discussion and make predictions about what you think will happen to the water in each glass. Or analyze how solar cells or panels work. Cover one of the glasses on white paper with plastic.

Experiment with solar power by building your own solar powered robot or oven or by testing ways to speed up an existing solar car. Solar science to be exact.
