physics projects

Post by rp 4 »

I have to make and submit a physics project by 1st June 2013. I am planning to do something in aerodynamics, making wooden planes and then experimenting with it. Any idea regarding optics experiments would also be appreciated. I was also thinking of doing something like measuring skyglow but have no clue of how to do it. Please help me regarding how I should proceed with the ideas I have.

rp 4,

Welcome to science buddies and thank you for the question. There are many projects on this site that fit your descriptions. You can find them in the science fair ideas section at this link:

There are even some where you build your own wind tunnel and test different aerodynamic shapes. I would suggest starting there with your research and post any additional questions here.
Hope this helps.
