Title	Solar Energy Experiment
Aim	To see what colour it attracts more sun heat
Hypothesis	I think silver will attract the sun because it's the colour of metal and metal always gets hot when it's in the sun.
Materials	1. White A4 Paper 2. Styrofoam Plastic cup 3. Black Plastic 4. Clear cup covered with Black plastic 5. Cup covered with Tin Foil 6. Thermometer  7. Heat Lamp 8. 100mls water  9. Timer
Steps	Step 1: Collect Materials Step 2: Set up the cups Step 3:  Add 100mls water into each cup Step 4: Set up the Heat Lamp facing each cup Step 5:  Start recording the temperatures of the water
Data/Findings	Time  Cup 1 White Cup 2 Black Cup 3 Tinfoil 0 16'c 16'c 16'c 15 19.1'c 19'c 20'c 30 25'c 27'c 26'c 45 20'c 24.5'c 22.5'c I found out that a Black Plastic Cup can attract more heat than a Styrofoam cup and a Tin Foil Cup.
Conclusion	In conclusion, my findings on this experiment state that a cup covered with black plastic can attract more heat than a Styrofoam cup and a Tin Foil cup. I also found out that a styrofoam cup attracts less heat. I think that the Solar panels colour is black because it attracts more heat than any other colours.
