    Guidlines for Physics Project

    The Project work is to be assessed by a Visiting Examiner appointed locally and approved by

    the Council. All candidates will be required to do one project involving some physics related

    topic/s under the guidance and regular supervision of the Physics teacher. Candidates should

    undertake any one of the following types of projects: • Theoretical project • Working Model •

    Investigatory project (by performing an experiment under supervision of a teacher)

    Candidates are to prepare a technical report including title, abstract, some theoretical

    discussion, experimental setup, observations with tables of data collected, graph/chart (if

    any), analysis and discussion of results, deductions, conclusion, etc. The teacher should

    approve the draft, before it is finalised. The report should be kept simple, but neat and

    elegant. Teachers may assign or students may choose any one project of their choice.

    Suggested Evaluation Criteria for Theory Based Project

    Title of the Project  Introduction  Contents  Analysis/ material aid (graph, data, structure, pie

    charts, histograms, diagrams, etc.)  Originality of work (the work should be the candidates’ original

    work,)  Conclusion/comments

    Suggested Evaluation Criteria for Model Based Projects:  Title of the Project  Model construction

     Concise Project report

    Suggested Evaluation Criteria for Investigative Projects:  Title of the Project  Theory/principle

    involved  Experimental setup  Observations calculations/deduction and graph work  Result/

    Conclusions

    No of Pages : 20 -25

    Physics Project Topics for Class 12
    1. Mechanics Projects
     Investigate how factors like length, mass, and angle of release affect
    the period of a simple pendulum.
     Create experiments demonstrating Newton’s three laws of motion,
    such as using a trolley on a track to show inertia, acceleration, and
    action-reaction pairs.
     Explore the physics behind projectile motion by launching different
    objects and analysing their trajectories.
     Examine the effects of friction by sliding various materials across
    different surfaces and measuring the forces involved.
     Investigate the efficiency of simple machines like levers, pulleys,
    and inclined planes by calculating the work input and output.
    2. Electromagnetism Projects
     Construct a basic motor using wires, a magnet, and a battery, and
    explore how electromagnetic forces cause rotation.
     Map out the magnetic field around different shapes of magnets
    using iron filings or a compass.
     Design a simple transformer to understand how voltage is increased
    or decreased in an AC circuit.
     Set up an experiment to observe how moving a magnet through a
    coil generates an electric current.
     Create an electromagnet and explore how factors like the number of
    coils and the strength of the current affect its magnetic field.
    3. Optics Projects
     Investigate how convex and concave lenses bend light and
    experiment with creating images at different focal lengths.
     Build a periscope and study the principles of reflection and
    refraction that allow it to work.
     Use a prism to split white light into its component colours and
    explore the factors that affect the dispersion of light.
     Study how light behaves when it passes from one medium to
    another and under what conditions total internal reflection occurs.
     Build a simple model to understand how lenses in the eye focus light
    onto the retina and explore common vision problems like myopia
    and hyperopia.
    4. Thermodynamics Projects
     Create a basic model of a heat engine, such as a Stirling engine, to
    understand how heat energy is converted into mechanical work.
     Compare conduction, convection, and radiation by setting up
    experiments to see how different materials and conditions affect
    heat transfer.
     Demonstrate the first or second law of thermodynamics with
    experiments involving heat transfer and energy conservation.
     Determine the specific heat capacity of various substances by
    heating them and measuring the temperature change.
     Test different materials to see how well they insulate against heat
    and investigate which is the most effective.
    5. Modern Physics Projects
     Explore how light of different wavelengths causes electrons to be
    emitted from a metal surface, illustrating the quantum nature of
    light.
     Design experiments to measure the half-life of radioactive materials
    or study the radiation types emitted by different sources.
     Create a thought experiment or model to explain the basics of
    Einstein’s theory of relativity, such as time dilation or the
    equivalence of mass and energy.
     Look into how particles can pass through potential barriers that they
    seemingly shouldn’t be able to, a key concept in quantum
    mechanics.
     Conduct experiments to show how light can behave as a wave and
    particle, depending on the experimental setup.
    6. Innovative & Interdisciplinary Projects
    The main aim of the physics project for class 12 is to encourage
    students to explore and experiment beyond their usual boundaries.
    Interdisciplinary projects, which blend physics with subjects like biology,
    chemistry, or even art, foster innovative and out-of-the-box thinking. Below are
    some ideas to get you started, but feel free to develop your own, keeping in
    mind that they align with your curriculum and are practical to execute.

     Analyse the physics behind different sports, such as the forces


    involved in a football kick or the aerodynamics of a baseball pitch.
     Create working models of renewable energy sources, such as a
    solar-powered water heater or a wind turbine, to study the physics
    behind sustainable energy.
     Explore how physical principles apply to biological systems, like
    modelling blood flow in arteries or investigating the mechanics of
    muscle movement.
     Investigate the physics behind musical instruments, the principles of
    light and shadow in painting, or the materials science behind
    sculptures.
     Study the effects of pollution on the atmosphere by simulating the
    greenhouse effect or measuring the impact of different pollutants on
    air quality.
