I-Bugger Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 So i'm a physics student. My school's IB department has organized a group 4 project site to be at a camping ground somewhere in the mountains. I've been assigned to a group, 1 Physics, 1 Biology and 1 Chemistry student. So this is kinda easy for the biology or the chemistry students, they could pick a type of plant and study the contents, chemically and biologically. While me, the physics student, i have no idea...So i'm looking for help here, could anyone please help with ideas. The campsite has nearby plantation facilities with varieties of plants such as strawberries, hydrangeas, etc. So it's now up to me (and other physics students) to decide a topic, and then the other members will follow whatever we decide. I've thought of measuring the temperatures the plants were raised at, but i'm afraid that was too simple(or not?), so could anyone help me with some ideas? Thank you very much if you could Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabz Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 You can play with solar intensity of that area. Things you may need:- Internet to do some research- Data of the energy use that you guys are consuming at the camping site- A solar panel, voltmeter, ammeterWell you can investigate the number of solar panels you may need in order to satisfy the demand of energy at the camping site? 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
