Challenge Question #19
What kinds of problems do you think we could encounter using these new
solar-powered transmitters? List as many as you can think of.
If something covered the battery, like feathers or dirt the battery
wouldn't be able to get sunlight to charge. If it was a dark or cloudy day,
the battery would also not charge.
We have solar powered battery calculators in our room. If the battery
solar panel is covered, the calculator doesn't work. If the room is too
dark, it doesn't work.
