Procedure

 

There will be many steps to this intricate project. Here are all the steps that I used to make this project a success.

  1. The first step I did was to make the box that I used to hold the heat.
  2. I made the box by getting a shoe box.
  3. Then what I did was I got a piece of insulation
  4. After that I got some glue.
  5. I then got the glue and put it all over the inside of the box.
  6.  Then I stuck the insulation all over the inside of the box.
  7. After that I checked the box for any cracks in the insulation.
  8. If there were some cracks I put insulation over them. If there wasn’t, then I started the next step
  9. The next step is getting a special lamp kit that will hold up a light bulb
  10. After that I cut a hole at one end of the box. It measured 4.5 centimeters above the bottom of the box.
  11. Then I inserted the end of the bulb holder into the hole.
  12.  I covered any cracks between the kit and the box with insulation.
  13. Then I found three light bulbs of the same wattage
  14. Then I inserted the first light bulb
  15. I got a thermometer and put the thermometers sensor in the shoe box
  16. Then I measured and recorded the temperature of the box .
  17. I turned the light on.
  18. I waited 1 minute before checking the temperature of the box.
  19. I recorded the temperature of the box.
  20. I made sure that I let the box cool down before doing the next trial. I did three trials with every light bulb.
  21. I repeated this procedure on two other light bulbs of the same wattage but of a different brand.
  22. I recorded my results and graphed them.
