Physics Investigatory Project

Post by kim_taeyeon123 »

Hi! Our class would be having a investigatory project involving Physics but I don't have any idea on what topic should I choose. I've already search in the net and I found some topics like: a. Magnetic levitation train, b. determine effects of increasing temp on the strength of magnet but I really don't know how will I start doing it. Can you please suggest some topics or ideas about investigatory project? (in pendulum if possible) and also if I choose a topic that doesn't required experimentation, how am I gonna observe it? (for example: in Aerodynamics) and which results and data is more accurate? investigatory projects with experimentation (for example: how do varying weights, lengths, affect the motion of a pendulum) or just observation (example: Analysis of Black Hole Thermodynamics) Thank you!

Hi kim_taeyeon123,

Science Buddies has projects on the two specific topics you mentioned. Each project includes background information and a procedure for completing the project. The projects can be found at the following links:

If you want to explore other possibilities, you might try browsing the other Science Buddies physics projects at this link:

I hope this helps. Please ask again if you have more questions.
