Verify Physics Theory Overnight - Urgent Help Needed

In summary, the teacher has assigned a task to verify a theory from the textbook using observations from experiments performed at home or in the school's physics or chemistry lab. The topics covered in the textbook include kinematics, work and energy, rotational mechanics, gravitation, solid and fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, waves, and oscillation. The goal is to use everyday phenomena to verify any theory, with a deadline of the day after tomorrow. The student is unable to use experiments from their regular course, such as friction down an inclined plane, simple pendulum, and viscosity. They suggest using a thermos and thermometer to heat water and verify the Q=mct formula, but the teacher deems it too simple.

Our teacher has asked us to verifiy a theory given in our textbook using observations taken by perorming actual experiments using stuff at home or by using ur schools physics or chem lab... the topics we have are kinematics, work and energy, rotational mechanics, gravitation, solid and fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, waves and oscillation... there are lots of theories in the textbook... the aim is to verify any theory using observations taken from everyday phenomena, i have until the day after tomorow to submit, i can't do any experiments that we perform as part of our regular course like friction down an inclined plane simple pendulum and viscosity etc... please HELP!
