We are ready to apply all our knowledge of forces to a practical application THE EGG DROP!
Here is the question we are investigation....
How does the ________ affect the time of the drop?
The goal then is to drop an egg in a container from a height and to slow the time of drop so the egg lands safely on the ground with minimal force applied to it. The egg has to be able to be removed from the container with ease and should be intact on inspection. We looking for the best parachute that can do this job. What are its attributes?
Examples of changed variables;
Size of parachute, shape of parachute, type of material it is made from, what otherways can you think of to change the parachute?
