Does black rock make solar energy?


Question:


Answer:
No, but dark rock (or dark anything) absorbs more heat from the sun than light rock (or light anything).
Which is why people wear light-coloured clothes in the summer - they absorb less heat.
So if you have a black rock and a white rock in the sun, the black rock will feel warmer than the white rock (all other things being equal).
No. Solar energy is energy created by the sun (via nuclear fusion,) hence the name "solar" energy.
