for it to absorb heat because dull colors are good absorbers of heat
If they are PV panels or heat pipe panels, they are not painted at all, paint would stop them working. Only a simple hot water radiator panel would be painted black and you would do this because the colour black absorbs all solar radiation, other colours reflect some of the suns energy.
because he did not have stoves back then so he made a solar cooker to heat his food up

A concave mirror is used in a solar cooker to concentrate sunlight onto a central point, where the cooking vessel is placed. This focusing of sunlight helps to increase the temperature inside the solar cooker for cooking food.
because it heat fast then i think so
Because if we will not paint then the heat is reflect on the solar cooker
The color black absorbs more heat from light.

A Solar Cooker is a device that uses sunlight as an energy source to cook food. They can be of any shape but the most famous is the box shaped cooker. The most effective material for a solar cooker is metal painted black to absorb light. It's top plane is made out of glass to trap heat (Similar to the green house effect). A vessel (painted black) is placed in this heater containing the food. A solar heater has a mirror that helps concentrate sunlight to a particular point/space. A time taken for a solar heater to prepare food varies greatly according to the quantity and type of food, equipment being used, sunlight available and air temperature.
Depending on the type of solar oven/cooker, it can be chilly outside, but if there is direct sunlight and especially a high UV index, the cooker can get very hot.
The pipes of solar heaters and the containers of solar cookers are painted black because black surfaces absorb more sunlight and convert it into heat more efficiently than lighter colors. This maximizes the absorption of solar energy, enhancing the overall effectiveness of these devices in capturing and retaining heat. The increased heat absorption helps to raise the temperature of the water or food being heated, making the systems more efficient in their energy use.
Only the part you want heated is black- because black absorbs light (including infrared light- heat) Other colors will reflect light, and it will not get as hot. Try standing in the sun in a white T shirt, and again in a black T shit. See which one gets hot first.

Because a dark color (such as black) would absorb more heat from the sun
It is because black colour is a good absorber of heat
