Question

explain the principle behind the working of a solar cooker​

Answer 1

Converting light energy to heat energy: Solar cookers concentrate sunlight onto a receiver such as a cooking pan. The interaction between the light energy and the receiver material converts light to heat and this is called conduction. This conversion is maximized by using materials that conduct and retain heat
