Showing Results for physics applied

Science fair project that examines albedo, and how this information is applied in the design of cars, sportswear, and other items. Which colors reflect light?

Science fair project which teaches you about the principles of physics within a vacuum by creating a vacuum chamber.

In this cool physics experiment, use double plane mirrors at various angles to learn about light reflection. Then, see if you can solve a puzzling problem!

Kids get step-by-step instructions for how to make a rubber band car and explore the physics of potential energy with this fun engineering science fair project.

Young physicists will wrestle with a discrepant event: the Hammer Ruler Trick. They'll make some inferences about torque, balance, and center of gravity.

Glass is see-through, but usually you can still see that it is there. In this experiment, we use baby oil to make glass go completely invisible.

In this science experiment, do tensile strength test on fishing line, a strand of hair, a rubber band, and any other materials you're curious about!

This science fair project idea studies which brand of wintergreen candy produces the most sparks in the dark.

In this project students experiment with making music using only glasses of water.

In this Bernoulli's Principle experiment, you'll learn how an increase in the speed of a fluid, like air, decreases pressure.

This science fair project idea develops an understanding through experimentation of which shapes are the most structurally strong.

This basketball project explores the best way to make the perfect shot every time.

Science fair project about work and energy which uses a simple mathematical formula to predict how far a jar will roll down an incline.

Kids will discover the meat science behind the meat they eat, and find out how to use safe chemistry to make meat more tender.

Find out whether a longer airplane will fly farther or a wider paper airplane.

Find out whether cast iron or regular teflon pans heat up faster and also retain their heat longer.

Find out which kind of bubble wrap fares best when put in impact.

Discover which fabrics shrink the most in the wash and why.

Find out which type of sponge holds the most water.

Experiment with buoyancy to learn how a submarine rises and sinks in this classic science experiment.

Demonstrate how static electricity can cause an object to move. It also examines just how an object affected by static electricity will move.

This science fair project idea explores how much force is needed to move a lever at different distances from the fulcrum.

This science fair project idea investigates if heat from direct sunlight is hotter than heat from reflected sunlight.

Science fair project in which you will attempt to throw a ball the greatest horizontal distance possible by using different angles.

This science fair project focuses on the use of a conductivity device that will determine if a substance dissolved in water can or cannot conduct electricity.

This science fair project demonstrates the principles of reflection through simple experiments involving mirrors and light.

Demonstrate how you can make your own compass using a magnetized needle. It also allows you to compare magnetic north and geographic north.

In this science fair project, students focus sunlight with a magnifying glass and trap shorter waves to melt ice.

This science fair project idea examines whether the colors of the spectrum respond differently in the thermal aspect when radiated by the sun.

This project demonstrates the correspondence between the volume of water displaced by a submerged object and the volume of the object displacing it.
