What conclusion can be made based on the temperature of soil when the light hits the soil at 0°, 45°, and 90° angles in Section 2 of the experiment? Did your results support your hypothesis? Why or why not?

Answer:

Based on the experiment, it can be concluded that the more direct the angle of light rays (closer to 90°), the more heat the soil absorbs. My results supported the hypothesis because the soil sample at the 90° angle of insolation reached the highest temperature, indicating it received the most direct rays and absorbed the most energy.

Sample Response: I can conclude that the more direct light/rays a material receives, the more heat it absorbs. The results support my hypothesis because the results show that the temperature of the soil is highest at the 90º angle of insolation. At this angle, the soil sample received the most direct rays and absorbed the most heat. What did you include in your response? Check all that apply.The more direct rays a material receives, the more heat it absorbs.The results supported [or did not supp

A
The more direct rays a material receives, the more heat it absorbs.
B
The results supported [or did not support] my hypothesis and explanation.
C
The results show that at the 90-degree angle of insolation, the soil sample had the highest temperature and absorbed the most heat.
