Physics investigatory project topic

In summary, a fourth year high school student is seeking suggestions for an interesting and beneficial investigatory project in physics. They are specifically interested in topics such as solid state physics, optics, and thermodynamics. One suggestion is the "Mpemba effect," which explores non-equilibrium thermodynamics. The student is in need of more topic ideas and is open to further suggestions.

No-one can help you unless you tell us what stage of your education you're at, and perhaps something general that you are interested in.

The "Mpemba effect" is some pretty sweet non-equilibrium thermodynamics... which you might be able to do... I don't actually know how hard it is to set up conditions under which the experiement can be observed, but it's probably not all that difficult.

you can google it for a lot more info
