You
must do this project by yourself. No group work will be accepted. |
|
|
The
heating section of cooker must be in the shape of a parabola in a three
dimensional form. |
|
|
You
have to word process a one page summary (one inch margins, double spaced,
size 12 font) including the exact equation you
used to design your cooker (the cooker must fit this equation) including
the vertex and focus. Tell me what equation you used, and why you
chose that equation. Tell me the vertex, and focus for that
equation, and a few points on the equation. After that tell me about
how you built your solar hot dog cooker and why you chose that particular
size and shape. |
|
|
Don't
spend more than $20.00 in the construction of your cooker. |
|
|
The
cooker must rely solely on the reflective power of the sun from the
parabolic shape to cook the Hot Dog
without solar electric cells or panels, electricity (batteries not
included), electromechanical parts, chemicals or flammable/combustible
materials. No magnifying glasses are allowed. |
|
|
The
device should not be larger than 3 feet by 3 feet by 3 feet (L x W x H). |
|
|
The
device should not weigh more than 30 pounds. |
|
|
You
must make the solar hot dog cooker yourself. |
