Do colors absorb heat?

Black absorbs the most heat. There are special coatings that have been engineered to absorb as much energy as possible 8or economic). Most of these are very dark, blue or black.


What soda color absorbs heat faster then other colors?

First off, why would you want your soda to absorb heat? Have you not tried it cold? In answer to your question... Dark colors absorb heat faster than lighter colors. So, if you're looking to find a quicker heat absorbent... Pepsi, Coke, Root beer etc... Would be the route to take.


Will solid aluminium absorb more heat than water?

With water been about to absorb heat water is a major plus for industries. It can go in your cars radiator for cooling the heat of the water also helps regulate the air changing temperature.


What type of relationship is there between the specific heat of a metal and its atomic mass?

Specific heat is a property of any substance which is how much energy it can absorb per unit mass. So the more mass the more energy can be absorbed, however the specific heat is consistent throughout a substance regardless of mass or volume.If you are asking what is the heat capacity of a material on a volume basis, that is quite different. Suppose you are limited to a certain amount of space and you could fill this space with whatever metal you wanted. (So weight is not a factor in this case). Materials like steel or iron would be ideal. Zinc, which would weigh about the same, would not be nearly as good. Beryllium would be significantly lighter than any of these and it would be better than the zinc but, not as good as the steel. To arrive at this conclusion just multiply the specific heat of the material by its density.


What kind of material you need to change sun light to electric?

black material to absorb the light energy and then more steps follow until electricity is produced.

Does gray absorb more light then white?

Yes it does. Black absorbs the most light. That is why in a car, for example, black seats are hotter than white or tan. Also the material matters as well. Rougher surfaces absorb more heat than smoother surfaces. That is also why leather seats absorb more light, or heat, and feel hotter than other material seats.


Do dark rocks absorb more heat than light rocks?

Dark rocks will absorb more radiant heat than light rocks, for the same reason that any dark object absorbs more heat than an equivalent light object. Light objects appear "light" to us because they reflect more light than objects which appear dark. Dark objects appear dark because they absorb more light and reflect less. However, dark objects will radiate more heat that light objects. Actually, dark rocks do NOT absorb more radiant heat than light rocks. Nor do they radiate more heat than light rocks. Dark rocks DO absorb more LIGHT than light rocks and they then radiate this light at heat. Light rocks reflect the light rather than absorb it and therefore do not radiate as much heat. If you put a light rock and a dark rock next to a HEAT source, the amount of heat absorbed will be related to the makeup of the material rather than to the color.


What colors absorb solar energy best?

black, its a darker color so it would absorb more heat than a lighter color.


Why black colour absorb and radiate more heat?

The objects is black when no light reflect from it, hence, it absorb light very well. And at the same time, what can absorb light very well would radiate heat very well .


Why would you use black in a solar cooker?

Because a dark color (such as black) would absorb more heat from the sun


Does asphalt absorb heat?

Yes, because black is the color that makes things more combustible or absorb heat faster


Do some colors absorb more heat than others?

Darker colors like black, will absorb more heat than lighter colors, such as white.


Which colour absorb more heat?

black takes in more heat than all colors


How does dark colour absorb more heat than white?

White is a good reflector of heat therefore it will absorb less heat than a dark surface.


Does sand or water absorb more heat?

water


Do dark colors absorb heat?

Yes. All colors absorb heat. The quantity depends on which color. Darker colors absorb more heat than lighter colors because of differences in light wavelengths.


Is dark blue or dark green absorb more heat?

yes dark colors absorb more heat that's why we where dark jakets in winters which kepps us warm and in summers we where white shirts in school etc. which helps to reflect most of the heat. i think you have under stand your helper ish dude
