Physics I Mini-Projects

Winter 2004


Work in groups of two, three or four. You should hand in only one write-up per group. Your reasoning should be clear, but I'm not looking for elegant essays. But complete sentences and clearly stated results would be good. If your handwriting is neat, there's no need to type. Be sure to cite any sources you consult, including web sites. This assignment "counts" roughly a third of a HW assignment. Each group member will receive the same grade/evaluation.

Here are some mini-projects for you to choose from.

  1. Hydro Power
  2. Flywheel Power
  3. Energy Audit
  4. Measuring Solar Intensity
  5. Backpacking Stoves
  6. Hydrogen Fuel Cell Kit
