The goal of the egg drop project was to successfully create a structure that would protect an egg from a drop of three stories high. The problem resulted as an eggshell would not be strong to protect itself from a fall at this height. In this project we created a structure from common household materials, that will protect an egg from a drop at three stories high. Together, we worked hard to create a structure that is both lightweight, durable, and hopefully indestructible. To create…

In order to do this, Newton’s first law had to be taken into consideration, objects at rest, stay at rest; object in motion, stay in motion… unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
