🎯 Goal:
Design and build a container to protect a raw egg from breaking when dropped from a certain height!
🧪 Experiment duration: 45 minutes
📦 Materials (does not have to be exact):
- raw egg
- plastic bags
- balloons
- strings
- cotton balls
- wooden sticks / popsicle sticks
- paper cups
- straws
- bubble wraps
- (scissor & tape)
📊 Variables to consider:
- Geometry (shape & size) and weight of container
- Egg placement (Centered? Suspended? Secured?)
- Materials used (Stiff? Soft? Flexible?)
- Stability during fall
🔬 STEM concepts to consider:
- Gravity due to Earth
- Air resistance
- Impact force
- Energy transform
- Impulse and conservation of momentum
- Newton's Laws of Motion
- Surface area & volume
⚠️ ️Beware... test your fall at a safe location and don't forget to clean up any mess!
