Physics & Astronomy
Objectives/Goals The objective is to determine the rate of change in the angle of the Sun. Methods/Materials A flagpole that measured 150 centimeters was set perpendicular to the ground. The…
Electronics & Electromagnetics
Objectives/Goals The objective of my experiment is to test the loss, or "attenuation" of 2.4 GHz electromagnetic wave signal as it passes through different materials and objects in addition…
Physics & Astronomy
Objectives/Goals My project was to determine which roof color is the most effective and least effective at absorbing the sun's energy. I predicted that black would be the most effective and…
Aerodynamics/ Hydrodynamics (Junior Division Only)
Objectives/Goals The purpose of my experiment was to demonstrate the effects of wing shape on lift. Methods/Materials To do so, I designed three different wing shapes with the same area and…
Electronics & Electromagnetics
Objectives/Goals My obejective is to see if more copper windings equals more miliamps. I think that the generator with more copper windings will produce more miliamps. Methods/Materials I bu…
Aerodynamics/ Hydrodynamics (Junior Division Only)
First Award
Objectives/Goals The objective is to determine whether a turbine mounted on automobile can generate enough electricity to power the cars electrical components and if it can have any affect r…
Aerodynamics/ Hydrodynamics (Junior Division Only)
Second Award
Objectives/Goals My science project was to build a wind tunnel in order to create an experiment that tested the efficiency of different winglet designs. Winglets are the physical extension o…
Aerodynamics/ Hydrodynamics (Junior Division Only)
Objectives/Goals I wanted to test if a wrap-around spiroid winglet design is significantly better at reducing drag by weakening wingtip vortices than traditional upturned winglets. Methods/M…
Physics & Astronomy
Second Award
Objectives/Goals Chemical nanosensors are becoming increasingly important in the nanotech field due to the reduction of cost and potential of real-time monitoring offered by portable devices…
