The key idea of a successful straw structure for egg drop project, from physics point of view, is to find a design that the straw will divert or absorb most of the forces, thus little force goes to the egg.
Egg Drop Design: The main goal of an egg drop competition is to make a structure or something simple that could protect an egg from breaking when dropped.
Results: Provide an account of what happened during the experiment. Include the mass of your project with the egg. Include the speed of the project and show all the math needed to calculate the results. Calculate the velocity, momentum, acceleration, and force of your contraption.
Test to see if it will hold the egg by (carefully) inserting it in between the straws. The egg should fit in semi-tightly. It should not be loose nor should it be too tight to the point where it will definitely crack the egg.
20 lis 2023 · The Egg Drop Challenge is a classic and engaging STEM activity that combines physics, engineering, and creativity. This exciting experiment challenges participants to design a contraption that can protect a raw egg from cracking when dropped from a certain height.
25 kwi 2017 · Test your egg container design by dropping it, cushion down, from table height. If your egg is intact, try higher. If your egg container fails, make adjusts to your design, such as container size and cushion thickness.
13 mar 2018 · You can build a container using a range of materials, including drinking straws, which can be arranged to provide cushion and protection to the egg. Cut six drinking straws into quarters. Place five of the quartered straws against each other to make a raft, or bed of straws.
