Can anyonewe suggest an extended essay project for me in physics

AI Thread Summary
Extended essay projects in physics can include topics like the modeling of a physical pendulum, which can be tailored to a student's knowledge level. It's recommended to consult with a tutor for guidance on selecting a suitable topic. Areas of interest could range from the physics of rainbows to the workings of plasma TVs, Nintendo Wii controllers, hybrid cars, fuel cells, regenerative braking, or LEDs. Focusing on a personally interesting subject may enhance engagement and enjoyment in the research process. Selecting a topic that resonates with personal curiosity is crucial for a successful essay.

Can anyonewe suggest an extended essay project for me in physics. I am a grade 11 student in physics and want to do my thesis on. Any ideas please? Thanks
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Quite a nice project which can be tailored to your level of knowlage is the modelling of a physical pendulum. However, I would speak to your tutor and see whay they advise.
 
The list is endless- what physical phenomena do you find interesting? You could write an essay on rainbows, for example. How plasma tv's work- or Ninetendo Wii controllers. Hybrid cars, fuel cells, regenerative braking, LED's... like I said, the list is endless.

My hunch is that you will find the assignment more interesting by digging down into a topic of interest, rather than trying to write about something 'ripped from today's Nature'.
 
Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
