laser/colloid scattering and mentor

AFTER you've done your research and concluded your experiments, it is time to prepare for the science fair. Ask specific questions about preparing for a science fair, including how to set up your display board, how to prepare a presentation, etc. (Please post questions about selecting a project or conducting your experiment by posting in the appropriate "area of science" forum.)

If I shine a laser through jello at increasing intervals will the amount of scattering increase? For this project I will need a mentor please respond with your email if possible to be my mentor. :D

Hi Beau,

Can you please elaborate on what you mean by "different intervals"? What are you changing between measurements?

On Ask an Expert, we can only help you here in the forums. You will need to check with your teacher to find out whether corresponding with someone in these forums counts as having a mentor.
All the best,
Terik
