Which color absorbs more heat- blue or red?

blue


What colour car absorbs more heat black red blue green whiteshinyb or dull surface?

black, because darker colours absorb more heat than lighter colours. I'd say that dull colours absorb more heat, as shiny colours reflect more heat and light.


What is the independent variable of this question which color absorbs more heat black or red?

The independent variable is the variable that does not depend on other variables. In other words, the independent variable controls and varies the result of the experiment as the independent variable controls the dependent variable. For example, if you are experimenting on how long it takes water to boil, the independent variable would be time and the dependent variable would be temperature. Out of the two colours, black and red, black absorbs more heat than red. In fact, black is the colour that absorbs most heat out of all the colours. This is because if all of the seven colours from the light are absorbed, the combination becomes black. On the other hand, white reflects all seven colours from the light, so white is practically no colour at all.


Why do we feel hot when we wear black shirt?

The black seems to attract the heat. The same goes for a back car left in the sun compared to a white car. If you feel the top of both cars, the black is a lot hotter than the white one. Black absorbs more radiation than other colours, this is why we see it as black. The heat we feel is infra-red radiation, part of the electromagnetic scale.

Which color absorb more heat black or red?

Yes it does, because it has the longest wavelength out of the visible color spectrum it absorbs more heat. The only color that absorbs more is black because it absorbs all colors, therefore, takes in the most amount of heat energy

Why black paper give out heat best?

Colour depends on what light something absorbs and reflects, white paper reflects all light so its white, and black absorbs all, thus, absorbing more light, and transmitting infra red waves

If red blue black orange are put out in the sun which one would absorb the most heat?

Black because black absorbs the most sun.GREAT TIP FOR SUMMER FASHIONS!


Does white absorb more heat than black?

The reason why black absorbs more heat is because when light is split up into the seven colours, black objects seem to absorb them all. You will find that if you mix (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet) it will all come to the colour black. Whereas white, it reflects all the colours and does not absorb any.


What is an anatomy for a black giant squirrel?

Why does a black car get hotter than any other car?

black attracts the sun more than any other color actually.. black absorbs the sunlight. you can only see colour because it reflects that particular colour back to your eyes & absorbs all other light spectums. i.e. if the car was red, it is not absorbing the red light, there fore you see the car as red, but that is less heat from the sun to absorb. white is the coolest colour, as whire relects all light back. (although I'm sure a chrome care would be even cooler again) black absorbs all the light & heat along with it.


Why are solar panels usually in black?

black absorbs the light! and solar power uses the sun! more sun absorption more solar power! I thought the electrical current was produced by short-wave radiation, not infra-red (heat). in fact, as the heat goes up, the efficiency of the solar cell goes down.
