physics expert needed
Here's what you need to do:
The work must be at least two pages as a PDF file
Think of an interesting real-world problem that you can solve using what you've learned in class this year. It can be something related to engineering, circuits, power, optics, electricity and magnetism, etc. Make it something that would interest you. For example:
What surface area of solar panels would you need to generate the amount of energy needed to power a spinning space station ring (at or around Earth's orbital radius) that could provide a centripetal force that would simulate Earth's gravity? How would you design the station in order for it to work?
Could you harness the power of stationary bikes and treadmills in the gym to power a room, or building?
Could you design an invisibility cloak or something like it with thin-film interference?
Can you build a novel circuit out of the parts we studied in class and use differential equations to predict the behavior of current and voltage with time?
Feel free to discuss ideas with me in class or in office hours.
The idea should come from you and be novel, interesting, and solvable.
You will need to apply the concepts and equations we studied in this course
You will need to look up specifications, constants, or other equations you may need, and you may also need to make approximations or assumptions
You should be prepared to do a few pages of drawings, diagrams, equations to lay out your work.
How to submit your work:
You can work out your idea on paper, scan it as a pdf, and submit it.
WRITE CLEARLY, NEATLY, AND BE ORGANIZED IN YOUR PRESENTATION.
Clearly explain at the beginning what your problem or challenge is. Then follow through with diagrams, sketches, equations, etc.
Clearly indicate your final answer with appropriate units, and check your work. Explain the implications of your results in 1-2 sentences.
Do not copy any problems out of the book or off the Internet. You need to come up with the idea and your work yourself.
A well thought-out, rigorous, and accurate assignment is worth 100 points
A well thought-out, rigorous assignment with a few mistakes or faulty assumptions is worth 50 points.
A poorly thought-out assignment with substantial errors or bad assumptions is worth 0 points.
A plagiarized assignment, with an idea and/or solution copied from a classmate, your textbook, or the Internet, is worth -40 points. That is, I will take points from your post-course survey if you plagiarized this work. If you are going to do this extra credit, I expect you will do it well.
