Case Study: Does the Sun’s Angle Affect the Output Of a Solar Cell? Abstract During the experiment to determine Solar Cell Energy‚ one unit of flexible solar cells was exposed to solar radiation at different angles in one axis of rotation. The cells were attached to a adjustable plane with a protractor that acted like a “see-saw” to adjust the angle of the solar cells to the Sun. Around the plane‚ a column of cardboard was constructed with black fabric covering the inside

Abstract An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of the allelopathic compounds of Encelia Farinosa (brittle bush) on desert native annuals and non-native seed germination. The experiment was set up by putting native wild flower seeds in six Petri dishes and lettuce seeds in six different dishes. To three of each dish containing the different seeds‚ water was added as a control. To the three other dishes‚ a prepared brittle bush tea (filtered ground brittle bush leaves and water) was
