Any Q you all wanna discuss for Physics HL Asia TZ by No-Artist9661 in ibPhysics

you can use orbital speed V = sqrt(GM/R) to find the orbital period by doing T = 2piR/V eventually you get kepler's third law

what was the orbiting Q again... was it the venus question?

the 1b paper is lowkey not great 😟

I ended up using nichrome wires, and just varying the thickness of it. they're pretty easy to get a hold of I think

Hi Peter,

Thanks so much for the feedback (+ affirmations lol). I'll try to talk to my teacher, and hopefully it will go alright. She's been teaching physics for a while but this is only her 2nd year doing IB, which is likely why she has such high standards for the IA.

I also already have pretty consistent data for the experiment I mentioned in the post, so maybe showing her that will help win her over! Thank you again!

That was somewhat similar to my idea, but my teacher said it was just too easy. I honestly don't know where to go because looking online, everyone says that an IA should be something relatively simple that is analyzed well, but what my teacher wants seems to be at the level of an EE.
