I need serious help to make a project on Physics. I went through many sites, but couldn't find something suitable for an experiment worthy enough to get an A. I'm in High School. I need your help. Can you tell me what I should make or perhaps which sites I should refer to??

something related, probably to light, sound and electro-magnetism.

Last year, a friend and I built a Tesla Coil for a regional academic competition. We easily took first place. Basically, a Tesla Coil is a high-capacity transformer that can take wall current (dangerous to deadly) and turn it into extremely high voltage, low amperage current (typically harmless). Nikola Tesla built coils so large, he filled entire rooms with harmless lightning.
Building a good coil could be difficult, so this project may not be appropriate for your grade level. If you look around online for keywords like "tesla coil", "tesla coil plans", and "building a tesla coil", you should be able to find plans.
Good luck!

I don't know which part of physics you want your experiment!
but i saw a nice video of making the patterns of sound waves by using fire
They used a pipe with 1 meter length with a line of small holes, this pipe is connected to two hoses; one from the gas fuel source and the other from the sound source. At the end of the experiment they play rock in the pipe, it was cool :)
I wish, i helped with this wrecked explanation.
