Absorption of Radiant Energy by Different Colors

Post by deleted-735561 »

Hello. I am not being snarky by asking the following question: What is the application for this project? Why would someone want to know this?

I am desperately looking for a project, and I feel I could do this project, I just don’t know why?

I have looked at hundreds of projects. I am trying to find one that I might like and be successful at.

I am genuinely asking for help.

Hi kashn,
This particular topic can have applications in a number of ways:
1. In Astronomy, you could estimate the composition of a star and its temperature based on this info.

2. In buildings, understanding color and the absorption of radiant energy can influence how you design and manage the cooling and heating systems.

3. In electronics, you could build photonic integrated circuits based on the principle of this experiment.

I hope this gives you a few more ideas!
Good Luck!
