What’s Special About Experimental Research Opportunity?

Our custom-designed tools give students the power to explore Physics concepts like how mass distribution affects rotational inertia, how rotational inertia influences projectile motion, force, angular acceleration, & energy transfer, how size & weight distribution impact speed/acceleration, how density impacts design of underwater systems.


You can choose one topic or more. This 3-4 week project per topic is 100% remote. We'll ship materials to your home, and you'll return them upon completion. This is an unpaid research opportunity.


What You’ll Do:


  • Design experiments 
  • Collect and analyze data using the scientific method
  • Compare different scenarios by changing variables
  • Understand the connection between experimental physics and real-world engineering systems
