The document outlines an experiment to determine whether black or white kettles cool down faster. It explains that black kettles, being better conductors of heat, absorb heat from the water more quickly than white kettles. The experiment involves heating both kettles filled with water and measuring the time taken for the water to reach room temperature.

Step 1: Asking a question
Do Kettles cool down faster
when they are black or white? Step 2: Collecting data Due to the fact that the colour black is a better conductor of heat, it will absorb the heat from the water faster than the white colored kettle since white is a worse conductor of heat. Step 3 n 4: Test your hypothesis In this step you will need to take a black kettle and a white kettle, then fill them each with 50ml of water, and heat them up until they reach 75°C and take down the amount of time for the water to reach room temp (24°C) Step 5: documenting your results . Although being metal. white as a . black as a colour is very good at colour is not good at conducting conducting heat due to that fact, it heat cools down faster since it absorbs the heat from the water . The white kettle heats up slower than the black kettle Thank you for reading (Step 6: share)
