Experiment materials were distributed for the first time on Thu., Oct. 13 before Quiz #2.  I should have a few more sets of materials available on Tue., Oct. 18.   Click on one of the following links if you need an extra copy of the report format, the instructions, or the data collection sheet.

The experiment doesn't take very long to complete, but it does require sunny weather without wind (it's best to perform the experiment around midday when the sunlight is most intense).  Don't wait until the last minute to collect the data, you don't know what the weather will be like.  Here's a little more information about the experiment.

Your thermometer might have a separated column.  If so, see these special instructions.

Once you have collected your data, return your materials (your name will turn orange once you've done that) and pick up the supplementary information handout.   Do this well before your report is due, the supplementary information sheet will show you how to use your measurements to calculate the solar irradiance. 

Unless noted otherwise reports are due on Tue., Nov. 1.
