Me and my friend are looking to do a project for our science research class in high school. My friend said he is allowed to use his Rasperry Pi for a project and I am interested in physics while he is a big computer and technology guy, I'm looking for ideas for projects either using the software to make physics simulations or control something to demonstrate a physics phenomena or anything that connects physics and the raspberry pi.

Thanks so much!

Thread 'Does acceleration affect impact energy vs constant velocity?'

I do not have a good working knowledge of physics yet. I tried to piece this together but after researching this, I couldn’t figure out the correct laws of physics to combine to develop a formula to answer this question. Ex. 1 - A moving object impacts a static object at a constant velocity. Ex. 2 - A moving object impacts a static object at the same velocity but is accelerating at the moment of impact. Assuming the mass of the objects is the same and the velocity at the moment of impact...
