I am going to say that man has probably known the a dark surface absorbs heat since the beginning of time. It is something that can be felt by the body and therefore, if a caveman were to be in the Sun with dark fur on, he would realize it. He may not have understood it but he would have felt it. As a scientific principle, it has always be that way.

How does color affect radiation and absorption?
light colors are lightss becos the reflect more profdoff PHD scientist
Does the color of an object affect its absorption of heat?
plesse for the 5 hellen time can some one help mee
Does color affect the absorption of heat and how?
yes color affects the absorption of heat and how it does that is the darker the liquid the more energy it absorbs and the less energy it reflects This is not just specific to liquids. Any matter that is darker than pure white absorbs heat.
What color is produced by the complete absorption of light rays?
Black
What is the conclusion to the project how does color affect heating by absorption?
The conclusion is a summary of the results. We didn't do the project, so we don't know. You were supposed to do the project, so you SHOULD know. If you didn't do the project, then you deserve to fail.Some example conclusions, keeping in mind we don't know which (if any) of these is correct and it's not our job (or grade) that depends on them being correct:Color has no effect on heating by absorption.Green heats the fastest, followed by pink and then paisley.The more a color looks like a fire, the faster it heats up. Red, orange, and yellow heat quickly; green, blue, and purple heat slowly.Objects the same color as the light source heat most rapidly.Objects the exact opposite color of the light source heat most rapidly.
Why can color affect heating by absorption of light?
the darker the color, the more attraction to sunlight so the object heats up faster

Why can ammonia change a flower's color through a flower's pigment?
ammonia can change the soils pH (acidity level) which can affect the formation of plant pigments or the absorption of elements
What minerals are used to make the color bright green?
Mineral color is caused by the absorption, or lack of absorption, of various wavelengths of light. The minerals that are used to make the color bright green are copper, nickel and barium.
