To control the force that causes an egg to break, you can manipulate the factors that contribute to force, such as impact velocity and surface area of contact. By decreasing the impact velocity or increasing the surface area of contact, you can reduce the force exerted on the egg and decrease the likelihood of it breaking. Additionally, you can also introduce protective measures, such as cushioning materials or a supportive structure, to absorb and distribute the force more evenly, thus protecting the egg from breaking.
To prevent an egg from breaking, you can control the force by handling it gently, avoiding sudden impacts or drops, and ensuring a smooth transfer of the egg from one place to another. Additionally, using cushioning materials or supports can help absorb any external forces that may cause the egg to break.
The hypothesis of dropping an egg could be that the egg will break upon impact with the ground due to gravity and the force exerted on it.
No, an egg will not break if you drop it in water as long as the water is deep enough to cushion the fall and prevent the egg from hitting the bottom with force. The water acts as a cushion and reduces the impact on the egg, preventing it from breaking.
It takes very little force to break an egg, typically about 5 pounds or 25 newtons of force. The eggshell is relatively fragile and can be easily broken with a gentle squeeze or tapping.
It depends. There are contests in egg dropping, to see how far an egg can be dropped or thrown. The dropping contest is a study in packaging the egg for the drop. So, if the egg is properly packaged, or dropped into, say, a haystack, it very well may survive the experience!

An egg will break if you sit on it or if some kind of force acts upon it...an egg will not just spontaneously break into pieces.
It is not the speed that breaks the egg. Rather, it is the force exerted on the egg due to acceleration when the egg hits some other object. An egg will break at a very low acceleration.
because the egg is fragile

When two eggs are hit together, the impact is not evenly distributed, causing one egg to absorb more force and break while the other remains intact. This disparity in distribution of force can cause one egg's shell to crack but not the other.

An egg breaks when dropped on a hard floor because the hard floor exerts a large amount of force on the egg over a very short period of time.In order to reduce that force so that it does not break the egg, you have to somehow decrease the time it takes for the egg to come to an absolute stop.So if you dropped the egg on something like a pillow, the egg would exert the same amount of force as it would on a hard floor, only the pillow would not exert as much force on the egg as the hard floor. Instead, it would be pushed back because the egg is pushing with the most force. This creates the soft, cushioned landing.Therefore, the net force of the egg vs the pillow is decreased and total elapsed time is increased, causing the egg to fall on the pillow undamaged. :)

There is more force behind the egg thrown further distance than the egg thrown from small distance. That and gravity acceleration.

Eggshells are designed to be strong and flexible, dispersing force applied to them. When an egg is dropped from a low height onto a hard surface like concrete, the force is spread out over the surface of the egg instead of being concentrated in one area, helping to prevent it from breaking.
