Given what's been on my mind lately, I would suggest either an experiment testing the kinetic energy equation or conservation of momentum.

Hi.

   Firstly, I know very little about Physics projects.   However, I would have thought people would like to know some of the following things:

1.   What is this project for?     Your own personal interest,  a school project   or something else.

2.   If it is for some academic establishment,  what sort of level or age is it intended for?
    Also if it ties in with any standard qualification could you indicate what that qualification is.

3.    It's nearly always best if you choose what interests you.  You'll do much better if it interests you.
       No matter what area you choose, there should always be the potential to develop the project to a level that is appropriate and in a direction that will keep you busy and interested.     For example, even if you're only interested in studying the inside of a ping-pong ball, there are ways you could extend this:   Would a static charge on the ball influence the interior of the ball?   Would the behaviour of the ball change if the interior wasn't air but was replaced with some other fluid?    etc.   

Best Wishes.
