ZuzaArt Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 I'm totally screwed. I need an idea for my Group 4 Project. I need to conduct an experiment (as easy to perform as possible) with usage of ICE CREAM and I have no clue how to connect it with physics. Please help ASAP ;(((( I have very little time for this...

Slovakov Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 You can take different flavours of ice cream and check if there's a variation in viscosity between them. Or if ice cream is a Newtonian fluid.You can also try to determine its heat capacity or latent heat. These are just rough ideas, I'm sure you can think of something else with these and Wikipedia. 2 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the ideas! I will take them into consideration for sure! but now I started thinking about investigating how does ice cream melt on different surfaces (like metal, plastic, glass or wood) Pozdrawiam Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboro76 Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Also if your school has thermistors (an electrical sensor), you could put one of them in the ice cream, create a circuit with it and include a light globe, and then, as it heats up, examine what happens to the light produced Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
