Halloween Physics Extra Credit.
When you are out for Halloween take some time to look for costumes that might be related to physics or have a physics theme. Maybe a famous scientist or something like Sheldon might wear from the Big bang theory (Doppler Effect costume.) It could be anything that might be remotely related to Physics like Star wars or Star Trek (as long as you can spot some physics in it). Take a picture if you can (and only if it is school appropriate) and share it with Mr. Groh for extra credit.Also, write a paragraph to explain the how the costume relates to physics and then explain how that character either exemplifies or defies physics and why.
