This project by Khashia Fathima from iMAX Nursery & Primary School is an award-winning exploration of utilizing blackbody theory for effective solar heating. By coating a metal pipe with black paint and exposing it to sunlight, water inside gets heated efficiently. The materials required include cardboard, copper, aluminum, and steel pipes, black paint, buckets, thermometer, and more. This innovative project showcases the practical application of scientific principles in harnessing solar energy.
