Robot Dynamics
Sharkbite:
I think electric motors is an excellent idea, especially since it involves a phenomena like magnetism. If that doesn't work out, how about using your robot as the subject and make a list of every physical property you can think of, then use the robot as a visual aid to demonstrate each topic. Some examples: Torque; any part in the bot that links the motors to the wheels or tracks, Inertia; any part of the bot when accelerating or decelerating, Static and dynamic coefficients of friction between your wheels/tracks and the carpet, the relationship between the topography of the carpet, weight of the bot and surface area that interfaces with the carpet, and hundreds more. Real world applications are always more interesting than hypothetical examples.
Good Luck and I hope you get an A+++++:
