Certificate: Physich Project Topic: Long & Short Wavelength of Colour

This document describes a physics project on determining the insulation rates of houses painted different colors. Taniya Prajapati studied how solid and combination colors (mixing long and short wavelengths) affected interior/exterior temperatures. Houses painted red, blue, green, orange, red-blue, and green-orange were tested, with blue providing the best insulation. The combination colors generally achieved moderate temperatures between the solid color counterparts. The experiment concluded combination colors can help balance temperatures and enhance insulation properties in houses.

It is with great pleasure that myself penning down these lines to

express my sincere thanks to various people who help me tong Way in completing

this project.

The harmonious climate in our school provided proper guide for

preparing the project. It was a privilege to have been Ashutosh Srivastava

critic and advice.
INTRODUCTION
In this science experiment, we will determine whether combining long and short wavelength colours would
balance the average temperature. To perform this experiment, we investigated how different colours of paint on
houses can affect their interior and exterior temperatures, as well as their insulation rates. We tested houses
painted with solid colours (such as red, blue, green, and orange) and combination colours (like red/blue and
green/orange).

The combination colours were chosen to explore the effects of mixing long wavelength colours with short
wavelength colours. Our main objective was to determine whether these combinations could achieve a balance
in terms of average temperatures and insulation rates compared to the solid colour counterparts.

In simpler terms, we wanted to see if certain paint colours could help maintain a more moderate temperature
inside and outside the houses, and if combining specific colours could enhance their insulating properties.

AIM
To determine the difference between the insulation rate of houses
painted with combination (long and short wavelength) colours and
solid colours.

Theory
1. In the experiment, we will determine the insulation rate of houses
painted with both combination and solid colours.

2. Combination colours are red-blue and green-orange.


3. Solid Colours are red, blue, green, and orange.
REQUIREMENTS

1. Oil paints

2. Foam Boards Houses

3. White Paint
4. Digital Thermometer

5. Infrared Thermometer

6. Notebook

PROCEDURE
Step 1: Take two foam board houses.

Step 2: Paint these houses with oil paints.

Step 3: Take a third foam board house and paint it


with white colour.
Step 4: The third house will act as the controller.

Step 5: Place these houses outside your home.

Step 6: Measure the temperature of the three foam


board houses throughout the day using a digital
thermometer.

Step 7: Record your observations.

OBSERVATION

We found that the order of lowest to highest interior temperature was the same as the
longest to the highest wavelength of colour.

The houses that were painted with combination colours fell in between the solid
counterparts.
The house that was painted with green and orange colour attained the highest
temperature. After this came the red, red-blue, green, blue, orange, and the last one
was control.

The house that had the highest insulation rate was blue-coloured. After this came the
green, green-orange, red-blue, red, orange, and the last one was control.

RESULTS
1. The house’s interior temperature, when painted with the combination
colour red-blue, was the highest.

2. The average of blue and red colour wavelengths defined the interior and
exterior temperature of the house.

3. But in a green-orange house, we did not obtain a consistent result. The


interior temperature of the house almost matched the orange colour
house. On the other hand, the exterior of the house was warmer than each
solid colour.

4. The difference in wavelength between green-orange houses was more


than the difference between the wavelength of red-blue houses.

5. The insulating rate of houses was better in the blue-coloured houses.


6. The average tendency was better when the distance between the
wavelengths increased.

7. As the wavelength increases, the insulating rate decreases.

8. The insulation rate of the house that was painted with the combination
colour was maintained throughout the day.

PRECAUTION
1.Take help in creating foam houses.

2.Paint the foam houses thoroughly.

CONCLUSION
In this experiment, we determined the
insulating rate of various houses along
with their interior and exterior
temperatures.2
