  1. What forces are acting on an egg drop?

    A falling object (egg) has a downward force acting on it due to gravity. Air resistance acting on the falling egg results in an upward force, and these 2 forces oppose each other. Table of Contents show What is the physics behind the egg drop experiment? The cup drop illustrates the transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy.

  2. Egg Drop Project

    Egg Drop Project This is the classic egg drop experiment. Students try to build a structure that will prevent a raw egg from breaking when dropped from a significant height. They should think about creating a design that would reduce the amount of energy transferred from potential to kinetic energy on the egg shell.

  3. Parachute Egg Drop Experiment

    This fun parachute egg drop experiment is a great demonstration of the forces acting on parachutes. If you drop something, it falls to the ground. This is because it is pulled by the gravity of the Earth. You'll notice that some things drop faster than others. This is because of air resistance. Try dropping a piece of paper and a lego brick.

  4. PDF The Physics of an Egg Drop

    Forces to consider during the Egg Drop: 1. Gravity: This is the force that pulls objects towards each other. On our planet, objects are pulled towards the center of the earth, which causes them to fall downwards. 2. Drag: Often this is also called "Air Resistance."

  5. The Science Behind the Egg Drop Experiment

    The Egg Drop is a classic science class experiment for middle school or high school students. Students are given an egg to drop from a high point (such as the roof of the school) onto a hard surface (such as the parking lot). They must design a carrier for the egg to house it during the drop. Typical carriers are milk cartons or shoeboxes.

  6. The Physics of Egg Drop Science Projects

    The egg drop experiment - a science project where students craft ways to keep an egg from breaking when dropped from a certain height - is a highlight in most physics classes. Read on to learn more about the basic, yet fundamental concepts the experiment demonstrates. TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read)

  7. Physics Simulation: Egg Drop

    The Egg Drop Interactive provides a virtual egg drop activity. Learners can vary the mass of the egg that is dropped, the height from which it is dropped, and the surface onto which it is dropped. The egg drop is simulated and the result is displayed. The impulse-momentum change theorem is used to show how the force is calculated from the egg ...

    Details Activity Length 45 mins. (20 min. for drop) Topics Forces and Motion Activity Type Exploration Language English In this exploration, students design, evaluate, test, and suggest improvements for a container that will protect their precious payload: an egg.

  9. PDF Egg Drop

    A force is really just a push or a pull on something - so pushing someone on a swing or pulling open a door, is exerting a force. Forces have a very useful property - they are capable of changing objects' speeds. If you exert a force on something, its speed will change (assuming that there are no other forces acting on that object).

  10. PDF Egg Engineering Egg Drop

    The egg drop project involves several physics concepts that we have studied in class and other concepts that you will have to research. The main concepts are: 1. Momentum. Momentum is a measure of an object's tendency to move at constant speed along a straight path. Momentum depends on speed and mass.

  11. How does Newton's law affect egg drop?

    A falling object (egg) has a downward force acting on it due to gravity. Air resistance acting on the falling egg results in an upward force, and these 2 forces oppose each other. How do eggs survive a 40 foot drop? Slow down the descent speed. Cushion the egg so that something other than the egg itself absorbs the impact of landing.

  12. Egg Drop Project Teaches Engineering Design

    Overview The egg drop project is a time-honored tradition in many science classrooms. Students build a device to protect an egg and prevent it from breaking when dropped. This project typically relates to lessons about Newton's laws of motion or potential and kinetic energy.

  13. Physics principles of the Egg Drop

    Physics teacher Emily Hunt drops a student's egg contraption. Eggs are seen falling from the sky, but it does not mean that the world is ending. It signals the annual physics' egg drop experiment. This annual event was held on Feb. 15 and Feb. 19 in the Foothill quad. This year's egg drop brought a plethora of creative and unique designs ...

  14. Egg Drop

    Egg Drop. For this egg drop project the goal is to create a padded enclosure which goes around the egg so that, when the egg is dropped from a height, it doesn't break. You want the padding to be soft enough so that it cushions the egg from high impact forces (during landing), and you want the padding to be thick enough so that it deforms ...

  16. Successful Egg Drop Ideas

    The firm walls act like the sturdy container, while the empty space provides shock absorption for the egg. Build a shape around the egg with the straws. Hold the straws in place with tape. Add padding between the straws and the egg. Another way to use straws is to design a framework that suspends the egg during the drop.

  17. PDF Egg Drop Experiments

    Egg drop projects help explore basic concepts such as gravity, force and acceleration. In an egg drop project, us ... If a force greater than those acting on the egg is applied, it will accelerate. "Acce leration" means any change in velocity slowing down, speeding up or changing direction. If you hold an egg, the forces --

    The egg-drop project is a classic and time-honored tradition in many science classes. The goal is usually to build a device that can protect an egg when dropped from a high location. This activity puts a twist on the classic project, motivated by real-world advances in space exploration.
