The egg drop experiment teaches fundamental principles of physics, including concepts of gravity, force, and impact resistance. It encourages creative problem-solving and engineering skills as participants design structures to protect the egg from breaking. Additionally, it highlights the importance of testing and iteration, as teams often need to refine their designs based on trial outcomes. Overall, it fosters teamwork and critical thinking.
in my scence class, we are learning about momentum. My teacher suggested an Egg Drop to better learn about the properties of momentum while still having fun! :)
It depends on how far the egg has to drop. In High School we had to do 1 story, about 10 feet drop with only 1 sheet of 8x10 paper. The most successful projects involved a combination of an airfoil design parachute with some crumbled up paper under the egg to act as a cushion.
A good egg drop project could be to see which type of egg falls the quickest (raw egg, boiled egg, and roughly boiled egg which is not quite boile nor raw). Then go onto a high structure, and time how long it takes for each egg to fall. By the way you'll need a partner for the experiment.
Eggciting The great drop
yes, this is usallualy done by eighth graders who build a box out of different materials and drop them from their school bleachers, then they unwrap their boxes to see if their egg survived.

Siemen's egg drop is a experament, where you have to wrap the chicken egg in materails and drop it and hope it doesn't breah.

In my school an "egg drop" is a project where you build a device to catch an egg.
drop it on a mattress
You use a Plastic egg
To use gravity in an egg drop experiment, simply drop the egg from a certain height and observe how gravity affects its descent. You can vary the height from which you drop the egg to see how it impacts the egg's landing. Consider using different materials or design structures to protect the egg from the force of gravity upon impact.
One way to drop an egg without breaking it is to use a lot of padding and put the egg in a container.
By throwing it
dont drop the egg.
The best idea is not to drop them; if you drop them, they might break.
Huevo, it is egg in spanish :)
