Did you know that physics science kits help you
to design awesome physics science fair projects?

Physics is a huge category. It is the science of matter and energy and their interactions.
Physics includes electricity, electronics, hydrogen fuel, magnetism, solar cells, rocketry, fiber optics and robotics!

Because physics covers so many subjects and affects just about all corners of our lives, we have divided the physics science fair projects categories into different pages. Each science kit has experiments that can help you to do a project for the science fair. Or you can make up your own physcis science fair projects with the supplies included in the kit.


The Physics Science Fair Projects Kits and Lab that are listed on this page are
science kits for students from Primary Grades through College.

More Fun Physcis Science Fair Projects

Image of physics science fair projects RC-Cars Turn your hobby into physics science fair projects! Get together with your RC Car buddies and do a team project. Most science fairs have a divison for team science fair projects.
  1. Use the same of the following equipment: model scale (1:10) and model (touring car), type of car (RTR-ready-to run or ARR-almost ready to run); off-road or on-road; motor - stock or modified; speed control - electronic or mechnical; channel radio system - 2-stick or pistol grip; recharger. Use different brand batteries and see which one stays charged the longest. Which one recharges the fastest? Remember, if you are racing at the same time you need to be on different frequencies.

  2. Use same model scale RC car monster truck. Use different brand gas. Which one runs the fastest? Which one jumps the furthest?
Did you think of a few physics science fair projects and / or experiments that you could have fun doing with RC Cars? If you want some background information go to RC Cars Hobby where you can learn all about electric and nitro RC Cars.

See what some students did for their science fair with RC Cars.
