Egg Drop Lab Report

Decent Essays
Egg drop My experiment was alright. We had to drop an egg from the top of the bleachers without cracking or breaking it. That was the first time I had ever done something like that. It was challenging but yet interesting to say the least. I got some straws and made two triangles out of them then I tied them together. Then I tied a little medicine bag to it so I could put the egg inside it. Then I made me a parachute out of a Walmart bag. I tied some string to the Walmart bag then I tied that to the top of the straws. I dropped it from the very tip top of the bleachers……..it cracked a little bit but not much. I think if I would’ve put the egg on something sturdier then it wouldn't've cracked. But all in

    In this experiment I attempted to created and study the affects of a egg in a hypertonic and hypotonic solution. To conduct this experiment I used the following materials: cups, eggs, vinegar, corn syrup, spoons and food coloring. To begin the experiment I placed three eggs in vinegar to dissolve their shells, leaving behind a thin membrane that allowed water to pass in and out of the eggs. The water molecules enter inside the eggs and the eggs begins to swell. Once the eggs have sat in the vinegar for two days I removed one from the vinegar, washed the eggs and placed it in the corn syrup.…

    The materials given were three raw chicken eggs, vinegar, maple syrup, tap water, and table salt. Prior to beginning the experiment, the raw chicken eggs were saturated in vinegar for two days, in order to remove the outer shell. Also before beginning the experiment, the mass of the glass dish was obtained, via a triple beam balance, for measuring/zeroing purposes. On the day of the experiment, the three raw eggs were removed from their vinegar bath and rinsed under a stream of tap water, running from a faucet. After rinsing, each egg was patted dry, placed in a glass dish, and measured b y a triple beam balance, in order to obtain the initial mass of the egg.…

    Maple Syrup n’ Water Reactions Lab In the egg osmosis lab, we set out to see the reactions that the egg had when placed in maple syrup or placed in distilled/pure water. Osmosis is when a solution attempts to bring itself to equilibrium by moving from a high concentration area to an area of low concentration, and in this lab; the egg attempted to bring itself to an area of low concentration. Secondly, hypotonic is an area of a solution that has low concentration, in contraire; hypertonic is an area of high concentration, in this lab the distilled water was hypotonic and the maple syrup was hypertonic. The distilled water was hypotonic because it allowed the liquid from the egg to move to it and the maple syrup was hypertonic because the egg…

    During this experiment eggs were rolled on paper towels to blot the excess liquid and then weighed. They were then placed into one of six solutions immediately afterwards. In 15-minute intervals, the eggs were blotted and weighed again. This process was repeated four times, adding up to 60 minutes.…

    Physics Egg Drop Project

    • 634 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The egg drop project we did involved many physics principles. One of them was air resistance, which happened because the egg dropped and it accelerated, while the velocity increased. Then the resistance of the air to the egg box motion also increased, which means the upward force of air resistance balances the downward force of gravity, so the egg box dropped at a constant speed. We attached balloons to the box we made in order for the box to pass through the air while softly landing. We believe that by attaching the balloons it would have less air resistance so the box will fall quickly.…

    Determining the affects of natural selection on gall fly (Eurosta) larvae from different predators Ariel O’Neil Biology 1020H Abstract This lab was done with the objective of determining if directional selection causes early larvae death in the gall fly. By first examining the parasitoid wasp and birds predatory actions we can hypothesize and predict the smaller galls will be most likely to survive directional selection.…

    Once the egg was decalcified, it felt very fragile and bouncy. When the egg didn’t have a shell anymore, it was kept from seeping out by the “plasma membrane” (egg white), which was congealed by the soaking in vinegar. When the nucleus of the egg became visible, it looked very cloudy. The substance that entered/left the egg in each situation was water, due to the state of the egg, by way of osmosis, in a way of trying to balance the inside and outside the “cell” (egg), this balance is essential to functioning at the preferred isotonic state. This lab could be improved by using 2 different eggs, as the data seemed inaccurate when placing a hypotonic egg into a solution of corn syrup made the egg hypertonic, because there wasn’t a proper start weight in the egg when placed in the second solution.…

    Astronomy Practical – Carey Zimmer The aim of this experiment is to verify the inverse square law involving the light from the globe of an optics kit (The star) and a light meter placed some distance away. This is to be done by analysing the relationship between the source and the detector. Hypothesis: If the distance between a light source and a light meter increases, then the amount of Lux recorded on the light meter will decrease.…

    I used one surgical glove, a big Gatorade bottle, saran wrap, a Dollar General Bag, string, and tape. The first thing I did was get the neck of the bottle off, I did this so I could get the egg inside of the bottle. The next thing I did was put the egg in the glove and put the glove in the bottle. I used the opening of the glove and taped it to the edge of the top. After that, I cut two holes in the bottle, both around the middle towards the bottom and pulled two fingers of the glue through each hole and I taped them down.…

    The purpose of this experiment was to understand osmosis, however, the deeper importance was that it could be compared to a real cell in our body. The egg in this lab can represent a red blood cell. When cells such as red blood cells are placed in pure water, water enters them through osmosis and they swell up. If this continues for a long period of time, they have a great chance of bursting. On the other hand, when cells are placed in a lower concentrated solution, water leaves them through osmosis and they are unable to function (BBC).…

    When we came back the second day we saw the egg looked like it enlarged, the shell looked like it was cracking, and felt bouncy. The egg weighed more than before, it weighed 80.23 grams. Our data supported the hypothesis because the shell wasn’t as hard as the day before. These days’ data was a hypotonic solution because there was no met movement of water, therefore the egg enlarged. On day two we recorded the data, then we poured the vinegar out of the cup and added distilled water in, to leave overnight.…
