What about that cool exhibit they had at the Exploratorium where they had
several pendulums of different lengths along one bar. You would start them
moving and watch the patterns of being in sync or out. Maybe for the math
component he could calculate how often their swings will coincide? It's
pretty cool artisticially, but I'm easily engaged at playgrounds too.

> I feel odd asking but I need some topic ideas for a boy who wnats to do a
physics based project in the science fair. He said something about wanting
to do a pendulum-based project but I feel like all the equations are known
so why do a project on something so well described already. Any ideas?
