Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyz.
haven't logged on for a while
and to tell you the truth, my internet had been slowed slowed slowed down
because ive been watching too many the office and modern family...
haha, but i'm back now

also just found out from another class that we need research for introduction...
which i will do now........

no one has, as far as my googling skills go (and library catalogue researching), actually done the conversion of different coloured light into electricity energy using a solar panel specifically.

i read these thoroughly
and it helped further my understanding
of solar panels and such...

eye pencil

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... :/
