Title Format Description / Recommendations
Power of a Toy Build &
Experiment

Determine the power of any battery, spring, or elastic operated toy.  You must design the experiment and collect your data. You will be graded on the design of your experiment, the way that you collect data, and the validity of the scientific methods and principles used.

Hot Wheels Build &
Experiment
Determine the efficiency of your old HotWheels tracks using only the tracks and a tape measure.

Skate Park Energy

Simulation You will analyze the total mechanical energy transformations involved as a skater rides inside a half pipe using a simulation.
