Most egg timers would work in space (zero gravity) apart from the sand hourglass type. The rely on springs and gears to keep time not weights.

∙ 13y agoNo, traditional egg timers rely on gravity to work, as they use a mechanism that depends on the flow of sand or liquid downward to measure time accurately. In a space environment where there is no gravity, these mechanisms would not function as intended.
An egg air space is the pocket of air that forms between the eggshell and the egg white as an egg ages. The size of the air space increases as the egg gets older due to moisture loss through the shell. It is used to determine the freshness and quality of an egg.
The developing chick inside the egg needs air once its lungs develop, this reserve air sac allows the chick to breathe and gives them room to maneuver when it is time to peep (break out of the shell).
In space, an egg would float due to the lack of gravity. Without the force of gravity pulling the denser yolk downward, the egg would retain its shape and appear spherical. In the vacuum of space, the egg would not cook or freeze instantly as commonly believed, but it would eventually freeze over time due to the extreme cold temperatures.
Astronauts are the individuals who work in space. They are specially trained to live and work in the unique environment of space stations, such as the International Space Station. Astronauts conduct scientific research, maintain spacecraft systems, and perform spacewalks to repair and upgrade equipment.
Yes, electricity can work in space. Since space is a vacuum, there is no air resistance to impede the flow of electrical current. However, special considerations need to be taken into account to protect electrical systems from cosmic radiation and extreme temperatures.
'The egg timer has finished' is a statement in the present perfect tense. Here it is in question form: Has the egg timer finished?
A clockwork egg timer works by using a spring mechanism that slowly unwinds over a set amount of time. When the timer is set, the spring tightens, causing the timer to count down until the spring fully unwinds and a bell or chime alerts that the time is up.

An egg timer typically weighs around 4-6 ounces, depending on the material it is made of.

you put the 9minute timer and the 2minute timer on together when the 2min timer finishes flip it 2min timer to make 4mins. when the 2min timer is finished start timing the egg and wait for the 9min one to finish :)

Egg timer
Use the fact that 4 and 7 have no common prime factors. If you run both timers at the same time, restarting each one whenever it rings, then sooner or later the seven-minute timer will go off two minutes after the four-minute timer did - and then you're in business. In detail: m0: start both timers m4: timer 4 rings, restart it m7: timer 7 rings, restart it m8: timer 4 rings, restart it m12: timer 4 rings, start cooking the egg m14: timer 7 rings, restart it m21: timer 7 rings, take out the egg. The egg went in at minute 12 and came out at minute 21 - nine minutes of cooking. This works because the 7-minute timer rang two minutes after the 4-minute timer did; the seven-minute timer times the last stretch. You can also make the 4-minute timer time the last stretch, and this is actually quicker (I just realized): m0: start both timers m4: timer 4 rings, restart it m7: timer 7 rings, put in the egg m8: timer 4 rings, restart it m12: timer 4 rings, restart it m16: timer 4 rings, take out the egg The egg went in at minute 7 and came out at minute 16, which means it cooked for nine minutes.

I would use my watch, or the timer function of my microwave. Or you can start both timers at the same moment, before putting the egg in the water. When the 3-minute timer ends, put the egg in. This leaves 2 minutes on the 5-minute timer, assuming both timers are relatively accurate. When the 5-minute timer ends, re-set it again for 5 minutes, and you will have your 7 minute egg when the timer ends.
