Egg Drop Project
For this project, I made a capsule for an egg that is to be dropped from about twenty feet. This capsule that I made was not what I was thinking at first but when I started to build it, I saw that this capsule would hold better than the one that I was thinking which was a triangular capsule with the egg in the middle but I saw later one that the egg would break if it hit one of the flat sides. The capsule is a cube that is made out of the tongue depressors and I used most of the yarn for the big cage and I used the Elmer’s glue to glue the tongue depressors together. I used pieces of the paper clips to hold the popsicle sticks together with the tongue depressors and some

When I went to check the egg, I saw that the egg just cracked a little, but it was less than what it was during the first trial, which broke completely.
When I saw that it survived more than the first trial, I saw that the only thing that it had to have was luck because when I tested it out on the grass, it survived,
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.
After viewing the trials of drops, multiple flaws were highlighted in many designs of the lab participants. One flaw that could have been improved on was more even distribution of straws surrounding the egg compartment, rather than overbuilding on one side. This could be solved by building symmetrically. Another noticeable flaw was the reckless flight patterns of designs
With the styrofome cup fill it with enough water to put inside the solo cup weighing down the egg
In society reproduction is one of the most important things that keeps our world's population growing. In these three short dystopian stories there are different approaches on ideas on what reproduction should be like and how it should be approached. Reproduction rights have an immensely big impact on each of these stories in different circumstances but are very much alike. These three different stories have different rules for the way they run their reproduction systems in their communities. Ten with a Flag the way the society has to do with reproduction is by a ranking system. In this case the people in the story find out how great their child is by ranking, so if the child is a ten it's perfect and if the baby has a perfect ten with a flag, the flag means that the baby might have something troubled or wrong about its persona. Amaryllis is about keeping society to a minimum. Auspicious Eggs is about the Catholic Church and its involvement the reproductive system. All of these stories have harsh endings if an individual can't do something to meet society's specifications about reproduction rules.
In day three, Observe the egg. Record your observations. Use the spoon to remove the egg from the beaker. Be EXTREMELY careful. The egg is still very, very fragile.
After gently blotting, weigh all three eggs separately inside their own individual weigh boats to the nearest 0.1g and record the weights in Table 1 at time 0. Place eggs 1, 2, 3 into separate culture dishes containing solutions of distilled water (0% sucrose), 14% sucrose, and 40% sucrose respectively. The sucrose must cover the entire egg inside the culture dish before proceeding to the next step. Place a napkin down on the lab counter, at 15-minute intervals, remove the eggs from the dishes with large spoon; place on napkin and wipe off all excess water each weigh boat must be clean as well before weighing; and again, weigh each egg separately. Record the weight in Table 1: Weight of Eggs vs. Time (minutes). Replace the egg in the dish for the next interval. After the experiment is complete, return the eggs to their container and each solution to its labeled container. Clean the dishes and weigh boats and return all materials to the setup
Rinse the beakers and fill both with 125 ml of water each. Place one egg in a beaker and place the other egg in the other beaker. Record the density by subtracting the current reading of water in the cup by the original amount of water in the beaker.Leave both eggs in their beakers alone for 48 hours. After the 48 hours, take both eggs out of their beakers. Clean both beakers for reuse. Fill one beaker with 125 ml of corn syrup. Fill the other beaker with 125 ml of water. Lave bother eggs in their beakers alone for another 48 hours. After the 48 hours, take both eggs out of their beakers. It is time to take measurements and collect data. Take a ruler and measure the height of both eggs. The take a bit of yarn (enough to wrap around the eggs) and wrap the yarn around both eggs separately to get their individual circumferences. Then place both eggs on the grams scale individually to get their weights. Observe their color and shape to get some qualitative data. Rinse the beakers and fill both with 125 ml of water each. Place one egg in a beaker and place the other egg in the other beaker. Record the density by subtracting the current reading of water in the cup by the original amount of water in the beaker. Clean up and the experiment is
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.
When the 4 eggs were weighed it was found that out of the 4 solutions, 2 were hypotonic and 2 were hypertonic. The mass of 2 of the eggs increased and the other 2 decreased after 60 minutes in the various solutions. Out of the 4, the most hypotonic solution was the distilled water; and the most hypertonic solution was the solution with 2.0M glucose. The
Egg Drop Lab Essay Forces are around us all. They are everywhere you go. In this essay I will be talking about forces, motion, and energy and how they applied to our egg drop lab. For my hypothesis”If the egg as soft stuff on the outside of our container,then the soft stuff will absorbs the pressure and force that it goes through when it hits the floor. ”This essay will have multiple details on how the forces, motions, and energies were applied to our egg lab.
Our egg didn’t crack, it landed safe. The balloons were the suspension, which keep it from having a hard impact. We dropped our egg twice the first time it didn’t work, the sponges didn’t help it. So we used the balloons, which didn’t have a hard impact. There was one thing that was difficult. The difficult thing was making sure Couch Rob saw all six sides of the egg. We had to poke holes
In the broken eggs problem my task is to find out how many eggs she had when she hits a pothole and fell. Every egg broke and the only information she knew was the following:
The egg baby activity was an activity I particularly enjoyed doing in my college career. I am actually familiar with the care taking process for my egg, since I was assigned this type of project before while I was in high school; the only difference was that I had a partner for this experience. So to explain the process for caring for my baby was fairly simple, my partner, Lily, had a schedule that was the opposite of mine and we would switch off caring for the baby evenly. She had the baby one day and I would have him the next. Having to switch off between days primarily reminded me of how actual couples would have to raise children due to custody cases, in which some are not as lenient as switching off between parents like it was for this project. So the challenging part of this activity
In "Eggs for Sale", M.A. Garcia writes that all women should research all stages and effects of the egg process, so women should consider all aspects of egg donation. First, most importantly, the process before egg donation is more about whether the women is doing the process for all the right reasons. Garcia stated, "I hadn't hung the phone up and I was already thinking of things to do with the money I was getting". In the quote Garcia was only focused on the materialistic perspective; furthermore, women should go beyond one motive to gain knowledge on the process. Once a woman is in this stage, she could consider what this donation process could lead to in her life, do she care where her eggs goo, as well as will she be helping another family.
Which came first the chicken or the egg? The chicken and the egg is one of life's oldest questions. The days of fighting on the playgrounds of which one really came first are over, but the question remains the same. Which came first the chicken or the egg? Just look at the question, it is a very tough one. How can a chicken arrive without an egg? How can an egg arrive without a chicken? Many people have varied opinions on this, my opinion is that the chicken came first due to many
