The two subexperiments on concentrating sunlight with a lens and a mirror are particularly suitable in physics class for the students to become acquainted with some laws of ray optics and thermo-dynamics based on a highly topical subject or to verify material already learned. But the experiments can also be used for a project day on renewable energy or energy transition. The materials and apparatus supplied are sufficient to allow four groups of students to work simultaneously.
The experiment comprises two subexperiments:
• Setting fire to a strip of paper using a magnifying glass as a burning lens
• We heat water with the sun
Notes:
• Observe the safety information in the instructions as well as the applicable safety guidelines for your school.
• All materials mentioned in the instructions will have to be purchased directly from commercial sources.
