Hi FW190,

The description at the following link calls this an engineering project.

But I think it’s a physics project. Physics is the science of matter and energy and of the interactions between the two. The experiment in this project is an investigation of how differently shaped objects (matter) reflect light (energy).

I hope this helps and good luck with your project. Please ask again if you have more questions.
