The machine my partner and I are using has a strong, triangular foundation. This is made up out of popsicle sticks glued together for support. On top of the foundation, in the center, you will find the dixie cup, which will eventually carry the egg. Protecting the egg, we will attach the ten balloons with rubber bands and string, enclosing the egg completely for protection. Along with the balloons, popsicles framed upward will enforce the egg to stay inside of the structure when it reaches the ground, rather than bounce out of the side. Then, topping of the balloons, we will place a small plastic bag, so the foundation on the bottom doesn’t carry as much weight through the air sending it …show more content…
How is gravity contributed to a falling egg? Gravity is an important factor to a falling egg in strategizing how to make the egg survive, because since it is pushing down on the object while obtaining kinetic energy, the egg is sure to break. Suchlike, in our egg project we have to think of ways to project the device. How would we do that? We would protect the egg by protecting it with drag, also known as air resistance, and
