Our teacher has asked us to verifiy a theory given in our textbook using observations taken by perorming actual experiments using stuff at home or by using ur schools physics or chem lab... the topics we have are kinematics, work and energy, rotational mechanics, gravitation, solid and fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, waves and oscillation... there are lots of theories in the textbook... the aim is to verify any theory using observations taken from everyday phenomena, i have until the day after tomorow to submit, i can't do any experiments that we perform as part of our regular course like friction down an inclined plane simple pendulum and viscosity etc... please HELP!

Why don't u just use a thermos and a thermometer and heat water to verify the Q=mct formula?
 
thats ... well... too simple... thnx tho
