In 1998, Uribe made a 5m solar balloon assembled from black trash bags. One of them, which hosted a reflective panel, was once mistaken for an UFO and caused great fear in the population. Initially, Uribe manufactured solar balloons with black polyethylene but soon went on to experiment with colored polyethylene, as well as non-symmetrical shapes.
Using the solar energy (Energy from sun) has been the subject of research for many years. Experiment 1: How does the increase in the number of mirrors affect the temperature in a solar furnace? It won''t set anything on fire, but in the summer sun it will heat a black garbage bag almost to the melting point. Once you have the whole
Plastic bags are recommended because they are easy to come by in large numbers, but you could try this with paper bags, too, or even garbage bags, as long as you have sufficient weight to test them with. You will definitely need a lot of weight to test your bags with, preferably many items of the same weight.
In this experiment, a solar-powered engine will be built from lightweight polymeric materials. It will utilize oriented polyethylene strips to convert radiant energy from the sun into mechanical work. Solar Muscle strips (prepared by stretching 1" wide strips cut from a black polyethylene trash bag) 1 - 6 or 7" diameter plastic disk (such
The plastic bags should be 3 different colors and you should have 3 bags of each color. You should use black trash bags, white trash bags and, one other color of trash bags. The bags do not need to be identical sizes, but they should all be large enough to hold 2 liters (L) of water, and be of very similar thicknesses (approximately 2 mm). Scissors
