Ok,

I've been racking my brain trying to come up with a suitable project for my Physics 2 class. My teacher doesn't want it to be too "high-schoolish", as he puts it, which is an iffy phrase at best. Anyway, I have thought of a few different projects, though I doubt any would pass as acceptable.

1.Using vectors to gather various measurements as I travel from one destination to another, in turn using them for calculations later on.

2.Conducting a study on "hurdling" to measure the amount of work and such required on a person to person basis to effectively launch over the barrier.

3.Building a spectroscope in order to acquire certain measurements used in later calculations (though I lack the proper equipment to do so, which is why this idea is out).

Most of the people in my class are electrical engineering majors, and are just building radios, transformers, or other electronic devices. I, however, am not so lucky.

So yeah... I'm just a little stuck at the moment, and would appreaciate any kind of help anyone could give me. I have very little money to spare, btw.
