Physics Superhero Physics (Also Known As Class. Craft Project: “Shadows of Olympus”)

Overview • One way that some students may learn physics concepts is through science

Overview • One way that some students may learn physics concepts is through science fiction or superheroes • You will create a superhero/superheroine that has one superpower • You can choose them from the list provided • There are videos related to each power from the list • You can choose a different power from the list (with teacher permission) • Whichever power you choose, you will design a realistic superhero/superheroine using physics concepts • You will need to determine physics constraints of these powers

Class. Craft Notes • Many of the super heroes of today have similarities with

Class. Craft Notes • Many of the super heroes of today have similarities with the pantheons of gods from earlier civilizations • For example, many superheroes that are known for speed are similar to the Greek god Hermes/Roman god Mercury • One difference with modern stories is the aura of science intertwined with the stories

Superpowers List • Super speed • Super strength • Mass/size change • Invisibility •

Superpowers List • Super speed • Super strength • Mass/size change • Invisibility • Flight • Other (with teacher permission)

Creation • You will not only have to describe the power, but place limits

Creation • You will not only have to describe the power, but place limits on it (for example: heat vision is not enough, heat vision that can ignite wood or to cut metal is more specific) • The physics behind that power • The consequences of that power • The character backstory and personality (and how they both relate to the power) • A design of the character’s costume

Powers • You are not expected to just “know” all of the concepts •

Powers • You are not expected to just “know” all of the concepts • I will group you by power types and work with each group individually • I will give hints, tips, and suggestions for this section

Backstory and personality • Let us say that you chose invisibility • How did

Backstory and personality • Let us say that you chose invisibility • How did the character develop that power? • How does this ability affect the person’s behavior and thinking? • I would expect approximately one paragraph of at least 3 -5 sentences • Spelling and grammar with no major errors
