Egg Drop Analysis W/ AJ
We put the pie tin on the top of the bucket of water and put the toilet paper roll on top of the pie tin and then we put the egg on top of toilet paper roll. Then what we did is it the pie tin making the toilet paper roll to move under the egg flying out of the way making the egg land in the water. This happened because of the law of inertia or the lazy law. An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force is Newtons law of motion or lazy law. Inertia is the resistance of acceleration and motion. This is related to mass because since the egg does not weigh that much it did not move from its original spot and went into the water underneath it. We used a force to accelerate the pie tin and the result of this is the pie tin and the toilet paper roll went flying from under the egg and the egg did not move an inch and went into the water. Friction comes into play with this because if there was no friction then the pie tin would keep going the way it got knocked and it would keep going that direction. The egg pertains to newtons 1st law of motion an object at rest tends to stay at rest unless pushed by an unbalanced force because when I hit the pie tin the egg did not move at all so if i did not hit it with an unbalanced force it would stay at rest in the same spot until gravity took it down.
