Science Experiments

Question: What is an experiment i could do on speed or velocity and not use my hands to push or pull, and no chemicals?

My experiment “Students will design a simple mechanicle device, using recylced materialat home, in order to demonstrate thier knowledge of the concepts of speed, veloity, and acceleration. The “motion toy” may travel on the florr or table(land), air(inside an classroom) or water (in meduim sized aquarium.) Cannot weigh over 1 lbs volume must not exceed 12×12x12. “motion toy” shall have 0 velocity when relaesed and 0 velocity at the end of operation. Must not be purchased at store, no chemicals, or gas. Experiment must be accomplished entirley by hand without the use of any tools. The experiment may not be pushed by an object. Ex. Use of a ramp or “down hill” object.”

I have an “F” in science! this project is 100 points! please help me!! SIMPLE i’m in 8th grade, so if there are any ideas send them to me. Thank you

Answer: there are tons of things you can do with old rubber bands.

Here is one Idea:

find some round hollow object something like a roll of toilet papper or something.

then get two sticks and get a rubber band through the middle which wraps around both sticks holding them against either end of the roll of toilet papper.

Now get something semi heavy and connect it to the rubber band inside and twist it up as tight as you can and then let go.

The object will spin inside of the tube and cause the obect to roll.
