carla did an experiment by placing a piece of smooth, clear glass and a piece of smooth, black stone under a lamp for twenty minutes. which prediction will most likely be supported by carlas experimental results?\nthe glass will feel warmer than the stone after twenty minutes.\nthe stone will feel warmer than the glass after twenty minutes.\nthe glass will reflect all of the light after twenty minutes.\nthe stone will reflect all of the light after twenty minutes.
Answer
Brief Explanations:
Black - colored objects are better at absorbing light energy compared to clear objects. When light is absorbed, it is converted into heat energy. Clear glass allows light to pass through (transmits light) and reflects some, but absorbs very little. The black stone, due to its color, absorbs more light and thus more heat is generated. Also, no object reflects all of the light (perfect reflectors don't exist in real - world common objects), and glass doesn't absorb enough light to get warmer than a black - colored object under the same light exposure.
Answer:
The stone will feel warmer than the glass after twenty minutes.
