I'm doing a physics portion of an International Baccalaureate (IB) Group IV project. I'm supposed to prepare a short presentation of the thermodynamics of coffee, and I need things to talk about. IDeas I have so far:
-heat dissipation, with and without the cardboard ring, of a cup of Starbucks coffee
-heat difference between various types of coffee (requires a lot of experimental data ; )
-effects of cream and sugar on coffee temperature
What else can I talk about, and how can I easily gather data on the various topics? I don't mind doing some number-crunching, but large amount of experimental data would be tricky- Starbucks coffee is expensive ;-P
