helllllloooooooooos
i did the experiment last night
and finished it just before biggest loser finale started
killed two stones with a bird
yep yep
anyways,
here are my results
they're not yet tabulated/organised
but yeah.
just giving you like
an insight to the preliminary stages
of my assignment?
...
distance from light bulb to solar panel = 120mm
light bulb (Phillips)= 60 W
Size of Solar Panel = 94mm X 63mm
name of solar panel = Solar Module 2.0 Volt 200mA
Filter size = 13cm X 17cm
Current
Red - 54.3 mAmp, 54.1 mAmp, 54.7mAmp
Orange - 57.9 mAmp, 57.9 mAmp, 58.0mAmp
Yellow (mAmp) - 58.2, 57.7, 58.0
Green (mAmp) - 52.8, 52.8, 53.5
Blue - 49.5, 49.5, 49.6
Purple - 52.5, 52.0, 52.9
No filters - 61.2, 61.6, 61.8
voltage (volt)
Red - 2.01, 2, 1.99
Orange - 2.02, 2.01, 2
Yellow- 2.02, 2.01, 2
Green - 2, 2, 1.97
blue - 1.99, 1.98, 1.96
Purple - 2, 1.99, 1.97
no filters - 2.03, 2.03, 2.01
and there were a lot of fails
....when touching the wires
of the solar panel with the pointy bits of the wire
of the multimeter
my hands were quivering/shivering
and made the readings on the multimeter jump a lot
solution of this is:
i taped the wires down onto the table
and the readings on the multimeter didn't jump
but i shall record these errors in another time
properly and precisely in the report
dont you worry..
i apologise if it seems messy and unorderly right now
but trust me, i've got it all covered.
okay byeeez

thick pencil
Hellooooooooooooooooos.
I feel like compiling a budget list.
I like making lists.
(and also to make it seem like I've been active a lot on this blog)
initial budget: like about 5 bucks
ended up spending: like about a gajillion zimbabwe dollars...FORTY AUD
1) Solar Panel = 15 dorras, dicksmiths
2) Multimeter = 17 bucks man. ,tandy
3) Lamp = i already got one... ,home
4) Cardboard to encircle lamp = found one on the street ,victoria av.
5) Red cello = 1 dollar ,go-lo
6) Orange, Green, Purple cello (hallmark) = $5.85 ,newsagency
7) Yellow and Blue Cellophane = home
8) cardboard make a support frame to hold the cello = $1.19 ,go-lo man!
10) Dark room = yeah free.
Btw, I'm spending my OWN money on this. 40 dollars i'll never be able to get back...and give to the poor. D:
BYESSSS.
edit 1 (19th April, 2010): apparently i lived in a cave
because there's actually this magical thing
called A REFUND which i just realised today
so i ended spending only like 7 dollars
which exceeded my original budget by
2 dollars
LOL, just ignore this pointless post... :/

but i think it makes it look pro.
