SL Physics IA help!

Hi, we've just been told to chose our experiments to design the lab for our Internal Assessment and I'm having trouble thinking about what to do. I had an idea about the ratio of the bounce of a dropping ball but it was already taken. Could anyone help me brainstorm an idea that doesn't have to be done in an electronic simulator or processed in Newton TV? Also, it should be best related to the SUVAT, Energy & Power, Circular motion, and Gravitational fields.

Thank you soo much!

i'm bad at explaining sorry but a design using suvat could be calculating the velocity of a ball going down a ramp

  • set up a ramp and measure the length of the ramp (displacement)
  • roll a ball down the ramp measuring the time it takes (time)
  • ensure that initial velocity =0ms^-1
  • rearrange s=(u+v)/2*t for v
  • calculate v from the rearranged equation
