    Can Experimenting with Different Materials Help Understand Heat Retention?

    I have had another idea. Can I test the conservation of momentum of a tennis ball, a golf ball and a basketball when thrown against a wall using a stroboscope to show that the velocities are the same but in opposite directions? Is that a fair experiment?

    Can Experimenting with Different Materials Help Understand Heat Retention?

    Hi. Thank you both very much for your suggestions. I didn't really want to change my topic this late in the game because I already have once (my teacher told me my initial experiment was a great idea so I finished the assignment and handed it up early and lucky I did because he said "I know I...

    Can Experimenting with Different Materials Help Understand Heat Retention?

    Thank you for your help but I don't actually have to perform the experiment I merely have to design it. It must make sense and must have relevant background information to support it. I came up with the idea and have spent many hours doing research but to know avail. Nothing I have found has...

    Can Experimenting with Different Materials Help Understand Heat Retention?

    Hi I am a year 12 student from Australia and I have to design an experiment. I have no idea what to do. Design is not my forte. I was thinking perhaps I could test whether density effects a material's ability to retain heat by testing the temperature change of a mass of water in a paper cup...
