Science Post

Science experiment

At year 8 camp we did a stream study. The test I did was seeing what the temperature was in three different places in the water. The places I tested were in the sun, in the dark and in the rapids.
My hypothous was I thought that the water would be a lot colder in the shadows than in the sunlight.
Also I thought it would the same temperature in the rapids and sunlight because the water is moving fast and half of it was in the sunlight. From my memory after I did the test it was 8 degrees in the sunlight, 6 degrees in the shadows and 8 degrees in the rapids. My hypothous was right and it was the same temperature in the sunlight and the rapids, also it was warmer in the sun than the shadows.
