Egg Drop Research Paper
For my egg drop project I made a contraption with a garbage bag, yarn, cardboard, Popsicle sticks, and hot glue. First I cut a medium sized square out of cardboard. Then I stuck Popsicle sticks in the shape of a square with three sticks on each side. After that the sticks were hot glued to the card board from top and bottom. And in order for the egg to be seen from the bottom I had to cut a circular hole into the bottom of the piece of cardboard.
To suspend the egg I made a rubber band net. First I took the three rubber bands on the all sides and banded the ones horizontal from it. The ones on the top were banded to the ones vertical of them. It resulted in a tic-tac toe like net. I then placed the egg on top of the net. The egg rolled around

    My project was constructed by using simple materials that could be found around the house and were transformed into a protective device for two Grade A Large Eggs. The materials of my project are cardboard, tape and a hot glue gun. I used a cardboard box whose flaps folded in over top, but taped open the flaps so that the height would meet the 20 cm minimum requirement. I made sure the width was less than 50 cm so that the bumpers would not exceed the maximum. I then cut pieces of cardboard equal to the length of the long and short sides of the box. I loosely rolled each piece of cardboard and taped them so that they would not roll open. Next, on the long sides of the box I taped the rolls of cardboard to the box horizontally and on the short sides I taped them vertically. I applied a lot of tape to make sure they would be held in place during the crashes. To keep the eggs from rolling around the big box, I secured them in two smaller boxes. I secured the eggs in the smaller boxes by rolling a piece of cardboard about an inch in width around the egg to create a holder. The egg can easily slide in out of the holder, but not easily enough to fall out once a force is applied. I taped the holder to smaller squares of cardboard and taped them down to the bottom of the smaller box. Each small box had the same construction. Finally, to secure the smaller boxes in the big box, I hot glued them down in the center of the box.…

    For my egg drop project I used marshmallow fluff. I took a little of fluff out and put the egg in. Then I put some more fluff on top of it and compressed it in. When we got assigned the project the first thing I thought of was marshmallow fluff. I wanted something that would hold the egg so it wouldn’t move and break. I also taped the lid with duct tape so the lid wouldn’t fly off or break. The marshmallow fluff is super sticky and thick so I thought it would be perfect to hold the egg in place.…

    * To construct my project, I first began building the protection chamber for the egg. I glued 4 or 5 sections of paper together to make it sturdy and safe. I made a flap that tucked in so that the egg could not fall out. I then glued more paper together in the shape of a box. There was a base and a lid, sort of like a Christmas present. I put straws around the metal of the axle and glued them onto 4 pieces of straws glued to together. All that was left after that was to glue the box onto the straws connecting the wheels. I then filled it with some scraps of paper so the protection chamber could not move around.…

    This egg drop experiment forced me to think and develop a design that I felt confident with. I developed several models and tested them numerous times, but could not settle on one. Eventually, I was able to put an addition onto one of my designs which gave me confidence in its ability to protect that precious egg. I will explain why my design worked so well in respect to impulse, air resistance, and stability.…

    Obviously I built this device with some prior knowledge to physics and how to make this device successful. I have learned several equations about force, work, power, height, speed, velocity and a lot more. So with force, f=ma, then I can easily discern what the force of the egg will be. Also, since I know all of these things, than I can figure out all of the physics with just the equations. Also I learned, with these things, that if the force of the egg doesn’t have something to fall into, like cotton or balloons, then it will break, because the force needs to be shared or it takes over the egg. With that, I understood a basis of how the device should be.…
