The primary collision point (pictured on the left) was roughly twice the size of my final cube. I also took a while deciding upon which wall to peirce and how to make sure the cube was centered. After much consideration I decided to pierce the wall with the rotating axle and double peirce. This seemed to be the most structurally sound wall. If the collision were to force the toothpicks into the cube it would not compromise the cube since this wall is supporting the rest of the cube. At this point I considered my cube to be finished, however I looked at my materials and noticed I had not used any of my given toothpicks. I considered placing them underneath the cube, but they would be difficult to secure and would not help enough with …show more content…
When my device is released I am hoping the egg will not force the system to rotate in the air. I was unable to do extensive tests with balance due to time constraints. Therefore, my primary contact point may prove ineffective if the cube lands upon its side. If the collision is successful then the primary collision point will take the brute of the force acting upon the system. Meaning that this piece is the primary time extender for the collision. It will be the component that will reduce the amount of force upon the egg the most. The primary collision point is held suspended below the cube by two toothpicks. These toothpicks upon collision will be thrust into the cube via supporting walls sending a shock to the support walls around the egg. These walls are heavily supported by the other walls, roof, and floor sections. The egg will hopefully absorb little to no force, since I am attempting to redirect the shock around the egg rather than through it. Straws are placed underneath the egg in case the egg ever becomes suspended during flight. This will ensure if the egg has a rough landing, it will still receive a small amount of force due to the increased time of collision. This is my Cube Egg Delivery Device. I hope with all the analyzation and planning, a uncracked egg will be produced. Any opportunity to build a device, especially in the case of problem solving, I will jump at the
In the lab of “The Falling Eggs and Automotive Lab”, we had to design a protective device able to hold the egg and allowing it survive from the impact of hitting the ground from the top of the staircase. We did this lab to investigate newton’s Laws and prove how they work. In the lab, we have to observe the forces that act on the egg and evaluate the way they work. We do this lab with an egg to relate to a real life collision with a car. The egg is essentially the person and the device that the egg is in is the Airbag. We use our knowledge about airbags and apply that to this lab in order to make the egg survive and not crack.
The objective of this project was to create a structure that will protect a raw egg and prevent it from breaking when being dropped from a minimum height of two meters. A decent hypothesis or prediction one could develop before any experimental trials would be as follows. The structure that provides the longest duration of impact between the falling egg the ground will provide the desired results of an undamaged egg. The duration of time in which the ground applies a force to the egg carrying structure is referred to as impulse. The longer the span of impact time, the more mild the force acting upon
With the styrofome cup fill it with enough water to put inside the solo cup weighing down the egg
We had to do an egg drop so when it is dropped from 20 ft it wouldn’t crack.. But I really didn’t have any background knowledge on egg drops because I never did one. But I did know that by putting a plate on the bottom it would make it float down and not fall. So when it was dropped from 20ft it wouldn’t crack.
Problem: How can I construct a design to keep an egg safe from a 5 meter fall?
This is the final step of the experiment. The shell-less egg was now placed into a new cup, but very carefully, as the egg was more fragile than when it was soaked in vinegar. The egg in the new cup was then covered with water. The egg sat in the water for a 24 hour time period once again. During this 24 hour time period the eggs appearance and size were once again recorded. After the time period had completed, the egg was removed from the water and was very carefully patted dry. Since the egg was now swollen, extra care was needed when holding the egg. The swollen egg was placed on the scale on last time and its mass was recorded as M3.
If you have a dental emergency that happens and when we can not see you right away, you’ll need to take the precautions necessary to make sure that we can return your smile to its former glory! Many dental emergencies result in teeth being damaged, whether it’s having them completely knocked out, chipped, or cracked. When these things happen, you’ll need to be aware of the steps you’ll need to take to keep those teeth alive so we can fix them at J. Wesley Anderson, Jr., DDS.
I had to get some duct tape, a balloon, some straws, and some card board. Then I put them all together by duct taping the straws after bending them the way I like then I put the egg inside and added a balloon and it worked surprisingly. It fell like a rock and it landed sideways it wouldn’t make sense that it didn’t crack. It didn’t have a scratch besides the one I put into it to measure. The body worked perfectly, but the balloon didn’t help at all. It didn’t lessen the blow but it is okay, it still stands today.
In football the force of impact can be dangerous. Helmets are constructed to protect the brains of the players. Without this protection the player will receive major damage from the impact of the force. In this lab, students will construct a device that will protect an egg from the impact force from the drop. The egg acts as a substitute for the brain and the device is the “helmet” for the egg. The independent variable of this experiment is the trials; the dependent variables of this experiment are time and velocity. By using the laws of physics, students will construct an efficient device that will protect the egg from the harsh impact of force.
The independent variable of this experiment is the hardboiled eggs to act as the teeth.
The higher the drop point, the more potential and kinetic energy it has. When the egg container strikes the ground, it produces sound energy that is produced by the vibration of the object as it comes in contact with the ground causing a banging sound. There is also thermal energy with friction against the air, which causes the container to heat up.
If you crack a tooth, wash out your mouth with warm water and put a cold compress on the affected area to reduce swelling.
An egg has a semi-permeable membrane, thus processes like osmosis could occur. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from an area of higher water concentration to an area of a lower water concentration. Osmosis is important, especially for living organisms, as they help distribute nutrients in the body. An egg’s mass would change when it is soaked in different substances. The goal of this experiment was to investigate how an egg changes through osmosis. This experiment was done to show how substances affect the mass of an egg. To start off, an egg’s mass was measured by putting the egg in a beaker then placing it on a mass scale. The beaker was then filled with vinegar and left alone for twenty-four hours. After a day, the egg was taken
In our experiment/lab was to think and design a contraption to catch and protect our egg from cracking when we dropped from the drop points, which was at .5m, 1m, 1.5m, 2m, 2.5m, and 3m. The material we used were a cup, bubble wrap, tape, 2x rubber band, foil, and a sheet of paper. The final price for our design was $3800. The design got to 2m until our egg
One of the fears that a lot of new parents might had experienced was when their baby falls off the bed. This situation can be nerve-wracking which causes parents to panic about the safety of their child. Babies have a top-heavy body structure, that a lot of times, their heads will land on the ground first as they fall. It could create a serious consequence for the baby so it is important to know how to efficiently prevent this from happening. My product - the baby protection floor mat, is just made for those parents to dispel their concerns! This idea was inspired from an egg-drop experiment I tested in my science class in which you have to create a landing pad for a naked egg to drop on it without cracking. Eggs are fragile as a baby,
