so my group was given this topic to discuss in physics. What are some sub topics that i can talk about?
i don't know where to start my research
example: 1) how a violin makes sounds?

Indeed. You can get a lot of good information from websites found on google and then if you have any specific questions feel free to come back and ask.

If you look up information and still have trouble putting together subtopics, just say so.
