We put the the egg on the tin, with the paper towel rolls. We used momentum to hit the egg out of the paper towel roll. When we did the egg stay in the air due to the lazy rule for about a millisecond. Then the egg dropped into the water breaking the fall of the egg. Inertia is the resistance to the change in motion. It's related to mass because when something is lighter then it will have less resistance. Friction came into play when we hit the tin, the resistance of the air held the egg in the air for a millisecond. The egg relates to Newton's First Law because the egg was hit and it moved in a straight line right down doing the same speed.
Great details on the Egg drop analysis. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteI would like to see the video of the drop otherwise keep up the good work.
