Hi, Does anybody have any tips for the Physics experiment. We are doing it on monday and looking for tips, not for writing it up, we're doing that after the mocks in February, just for doing the actual experiment. Thanks

I recommend using different sugars for the experiment. But be careful with ones like Icing sugar as they're too fine and get stuck in the funnel. I used granulated sugar, caster sugar and brown sugar. If you use icing sugar it can still work depending on your funnel. No matter what happens if the sugar goes down the funnel or takes like 10 minutes to go down (unlikely) still mention it in your write up. Best of luck;)
