The rays hold so much heat that is bouncing off of this curved building that it is becoming really bright to people who are just walking on the street. This is something that is becoming dangerous. ]]> 2017-04-10 12:53:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165654568 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165654596 So the curve of the building is kind of acting like a magnifying glass so it is putting reflecting the heat rays down on cars and people.]]> 2017-04-10 12:53:20 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165654596 hesavage https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165654937 I didn't realize that the reflection of light off of a skyscraper could do so much damage, since the light was so strong it ended up warping the metal on the car. ]]> 2017-04-10 12:54:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165654937 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165655387 So because the building is curved it is heating the streets and causing cars to melt which isnt good the reflection if light can do a lot of damage ]]> 2017-04-10 12:56:31 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165655387 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165655768 There is a building in London that is reflecting the rays of the sun so strong that that warped the mettle of a car that was parked on the street. I suspect that the shape and size have something to do with it. I also think that maybe the glass on the sides of the building is acting like a magnifying glass. ]]> 2017-04-10 12:58:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165655768 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165655974 I didn't realize reflecting light could actually do so much damage to an object. The building reflected the light enough to melt the car and warp it, which shows that the light was changed into heat because of the melting. The building is curved, so that could affect the way we build our models and what shape we should be using for our solar collectors. ]]> 2017-04-10 12:58:57 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165655974 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165655992 I am surprised that the building being curved made such a difference in reflecting light.]]> 2017-04-10 12:59:00 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165655992 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165656018 I think that is really dangerous if it can melt a parked car and blind people if they are walking by. Also why did they make the building like that if it could potentially burn someone and cause damage to cars and other things.]]> 2017-04-10 12:59:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165656018 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165656032 That's a good idea, build a nice big curved glass building. I doubt that this concept was thought about before making the building.]]> 2017-04-10 12:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165656032 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165656112 I didn't think that light that is reflected off a sky scraper had the power to melt/warp a car.]]> 2017-04-10 12:59:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165656112 https://padlet.com/lplante1/12zsocr0rqzt/wish/165656114 the sun reflects off of the building and into peoples eyes.
