Bexx25 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Hi! I'm doing my EE in Physics. My teacher/ advisor approved my topic but i was reading the syllabus and it said students should aviod trivial experiments. Well, yes, my teacher is brillant... but....she doesn't really care and provides no suggestions. Our school gets rather low grades on our Physics EE's so I thought I would get other people's opinion before I start. My question is: How do the stress and strain of an arch bridge compare to that of a tubular bridge? I can still change the topic now so be as harsh as you can because I haven't built the bridges yet ! Thanks sooo much! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ib_slave Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 As long as you state the significance of your topic, I guess it's ok but you might have to be extra convincing. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bexx25 Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Thank you a lot. I was able to get a hold of an IB physics teacher from a different school and he was a lot of help too. My new question is how many models should i build? I was thinking maybe 10 for each either that or 30. I hear that the more the better for IB but also in the syllabus it says that the experiments shouldn't take too much time. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
