You can glue toothpicks in layers around the egg then make a container for the egg to go in.Also, you can put super glue around the egg.I think if you did this your egg would withstand the fall.

How do you make an egg slam projesct only using drinking straws toothpicks masking tape and glue and it has to be less than 20inches by 20inches from a 10 ft drop?

this is just an opinion but you could loosely wrap the egg in tape to provide a soft outer shell, then make a cube out of many, many toothpicks and glue. next place the tape covered egg in the box and add a lining of straw between the egg and the toothpick box. then close the box and use a little tape around the toothpicks to add more of a stable protective cube. on impact, the cube should break open absorbing allot of the fall. the egg will hopefully bounce around a little. (without the bounce, the egg doesn't move at all] the pressure inside the egg will break it...) i hope this helped... idk, just a dumb idea Okay, good idea, but the we are talking about straws, not straw. The straws, along with the toothpicks and glue could make a substantial tinker toy type protective box. Built into a box consisting of two inch squares, a 20" box would have 10 layers of shock absorption Or, build a round ball with the straws and toothpicks to build a Mar's rover type balloon cushion. Of, course with the egg wrapped and suspended inside with the tape.

Why you use resistor in amplifier circuit?

Resistors come under passive electronic components and are extensively used in electronic circuits. So important are these components that it may be virtually impossible to build an amplifier circuit without involving resistors. Basically the function of a resistor is always to oppose the flow of current through it and the strength of this opposition is termed as its resistance.

How do you build a strong tower made out of toothpicks and white glue?

Buy pieces of styrofoam. Then, you stick the base in styrofoam. Next, you measure the length of the first piece and the length of the shape of the toothpicks. You may put some vertical on the horizontal toothpicks. Cut off the top of the toothpicks, and put glue on them. If you just poke the next piece of the styrofoam on, you wouldn't be using the glue. Make sure the length of the styrofoam is slightly bigger than the shape of the toothpicks. Glue the styrofoam on. Lastly, do it over and over again until reached height desired. You will need • pieces of styrofoam • Over 100 pieces of toothpicks • Elmer's Glue-All glue


What is ground break?

Obviously a ground breaking ceremony is a ceremony involving the "breaking of ground". In other words when you begin to build a building you have a ground breaking ceremony. Officials typically plunge shovels into the ground and lift shovel-fulls of earth to symbolize the beginning of construction, even though no actual work is done that day.
