Coconut (Cocos nucifera) Meatand Charcoalas Potential Power Source

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

The study entitled, "Coconut (Cocos nucifera) meat and charcoal as potential power source" was conducted to determine the potentiality of the coconut meat and charcoal as battery in terms of voltage, current and capability to light a LED bulb.

METHODS

The study was conducted at Science Laboratory, Tacurong National High School, Tacurong City from June to September 2017. It was laid out in Completely Randomized Design with three treatments replicated three times.

RESULTS

Results show that all three treatments showed no capability to light a LED bulb. Treatments 1 and 2 have no significant difference when it comes to current compared to treatment3. The mean of every treatment shows a significant difference when it comes to voltage with treatment 3 who has the higher voltage.

DISCUSSIONS

Coconut (Cocos nucifera) meat and charcoal as the potential battery is not capable of lighting a LED bulb but has the potential to create electricity as to the shown significant difference by treatments when it comes to voltage and current.

It is also concluded that in terms of voltage and current the Pr(> F) is less than the alpha which is 0.5, therefore, it means that the HO1 and HO2 are rejected.
