Motorcycles
My son wants to do a science project on motorcycles and what makes them so loud. He's in 3rd grade for this project... I'm lost as I know nothing about motorcycles... I have no clue what type of project or if what he wants to do is even a good project and then how do we come up with a title for it... i've never heard of doing this type of science project... HELP please!

Hello Angel Love,
Welcome to Science Buddies! That is a wonderful idea for a science project! The best way to get started is probably to search the internet: suggest that your son look at google.com or wikepedia and just search for "what makes a motorcycle so loud." That should give him a lot of information!
Then, he might want to consult the Science Buddies Project Guide - both the Science Fair guide:
https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... ndex.shtml
and the engineering project guide:
https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... uide.shtml
Those guides will help him organize his questions and organize the information that he gets from the internet.
He might even find suggestions on the internet for some simple experiments to illustrate the things that motorcyclists use to make their motorcycles louder!
Be sure to let us know if you or your son have more questions!
