calculus project idea?

i'm stumped as for a creative idea...i tried gas arbitrage and rate of change of human population, but apparently those won't work.

if i don't find one, i'll just explain Newton's calculus theories, but does anyone have any ideas of possible topics?

Re: calculus project idea?

i thought of another idea...is it possible to calculate the rate of growth/decay of icebergs and approximately how long it'll take for icebergs to melt to increase the world's water level?

Re: calculus project idea?

the brachistrone problem, Cycloid, Tautochrone anyone of those would be fun! Especially the Tautochrone and how Christiaan Huygens used for a pendulum clock because of an amazing property associated with the curve!
