i need help on thinking of a science fair project.
school starts in about 2 weeks for our school,
and science fair projects doesn't start for several months after that,
but i just want to make sure i'm ready for it,
and not procrastinate like i used to.
so i need science fair ideas.
and if you can find a site to back up your idea,
that will be awesome!
thank you!
A Rube Goldberg machine is a machine that has many different steps using ordinary items to get something simple done.
For my Rube Goldberg machine, I cracked a nut. A let a ball go, pop a balloon, let another ball roll down a series of crazy levers, and after a few more steps hit a hammer to fall onto a nut to crack it!
This project teaches you a lot about physics, is very entertaining for crowds and is sure to impress your teacher!

1)2 big jars(each big enough for a pepsi can to be in)
2)one ordinary pepsi
3)one DIET pepsi
you will put the cans of pepsi in the jars and fill the jars with water....you will realize that the diet pepsi floats while the ordinary one sinks....that is because DIET pepsi is less dense than ordianry pepsi

this i what my friend and i did and we went all the way to states!
