Learn about the basic, yet fundamental physics concepts that the egg drop science project demonstrates, including gravity, free fall, air resistance and terminal velocity.
The kids always look forward to the annual egg drop project! If you’re unfamiliar with this popular STEM activity, the challenge is for kids to design a contraption using various …
An egg drop contest in a physics class teaches students how to protect an egg during free-fall motion. Students must determine how to spread out the force over time and redirect the impact of the force so that the egg itself …
Your goal is simple, design and build a system that will protect an egg from a 1 metre (3.3 feet) drop. Eggs that smash or crack fail the test while eggs that survive without a scratch pass! You need to create something that …
You are working in pairs to design and construct a device that will protect a raw egg from breaking when it is dropped vertically from the highest point of the football bleachers. The …
A fun variation of this competition is to let a naked egg fall into a device that is built on the ground instead. The height from which the egg is released gradually increases until there is only one winner!
So, instead of building a disposable egg-drop device and dropping it from increasing heights until it eventually breaks, in this project you built a reusable device that can survive dozens (or even …
