Question
Your solar oven was the most efficient of the designs in class and your s'mores were ready much faster than any other group's. What design features helped transfer heat energy efficiently and directly to the grahams and marshmallows?
Responses
A The aluminum foil walls conducted heat energy toward the tin pan holding the s'mores. The tin pan radiated heat waves up towards the s'mores, causing them to absorb heat energy.The aluminum foil walls conducted heat energy toward the tin pan holding the s'mores.

B The aluminum foil walls reflected incoming solar energy to the pan and the s'mores. The tin pie pan heated up quickly because it is metal and conducted heat energy to the grahams.The aluminum foil walls reflected incoming solar energy to the pan and the s'mores.

The best response is **B**: "The aluminum foil walls reflected incoming solar energy to the pan and the s'mores. The tin pie pan heated up quickly because it is metal and conducted heat energy to the grahams."
This response accurately describes how the aluminum foil acts as a reflector, directing solar energy towards the tin pan and the s'mores, while also highlighting the conductive properties of the tin pan, which efficiently transfers heat to the graham crackers and marshmallows.
