Math and Physics projects? Do you guys know any projects that combines math and physics that I could try? I have to be able to illustrate or demonstrate it, then do the math... I have to explain why that happened using math or use math to predict an outcome. Use laws and formulas and stuff. I don't have any equipment except common household items... So if I have to build something please leave instructions or a website that has that kind of information. I'm really begging for answers here, so please don't leave answers telling me to look it up on google. Google isn't that helpful if I don't know specifically what to look for. Oh, and I only have like a day to prepare it and solve it so this project has to be easy and must be explained with no loose ends... So, please help! Thanks in advance to the really helpful peeps that will answer this...

What physics project can I incorporate on different types of strings, and the sound quality of it? I am to do a physics project, and I chose it to be on music. I have a device to measure frequencies of the sound waves and an instrument at which I can hook a string to, and change its tension, thus causing a different sound change. My physics project is to have a set of pre-lab questions, post-lab questions; and atleast one set up of durable, functional, and beautifully constructed equpment (using new equipment in a new way is acceptable as well) I know the topic at which I would want to base my experiment on, but I do not know what to create of it. Or if any other ideas involving music and strings, please let me know. I am still undecided upon what I want my project to be and what to build.
Possible physics projects? For this quater's project we are suppose to reseach the physics involved in different real life applications.

What is your volume and density? Physics Project Archimedes Principle? I am taking a college level physics class and we were giving a project and I am very lost, could someone please help me? Best answer will be chosen! Stats: I'm 35 years old, this is my first physics class and it just seems very confusing. The project is: What is your volume and density? Using principles such as archimedes, or pascals, (etc) whatever applies. You must calculate your volume and denisty or a kids. Volume in cubic meters. MAY NOT TAKE MEASUREMENTS OF YOUR BODY. Must use principles learned. Once you have calculated your volume, then calculate density in kilograms per cubic meter. Next, explain procedure used to come up with volume and density and principles used-state it. Then compare your denisty to density of water for fresh and saltwater and discuss the physical ramifications of your results (think about swimming/and does your answer make sense. Thanks!!!!!!

How to explain my Physics project? I've built a Physics project, where a vertical circle moves around its axis (Y-axis), and there's a small ring on the circle. When I start rotating the circle (using an eletric motor), at a certain velocity, the ring starts to ascend, and as the speed increases the ring ascends higher and higher, until it reaches the middle (height of half a circle, of one radius). From this speed on the ring stays at its height until I slow the circle down and the rings descends to its starting position. How can I explain this phenomena to my classmates? (I'm in 11th grade)
Physics Project: How can a car stop at exactly 2 m? What will I do to the car? There should be a car and to stop the car it must be mechanically modified. It cannot use electrical or battery powered. it needs to stop modifying only the car not the track. It will be done on the floor with a given ramp.
