The Science Behind The Egg Drop Experiment
The Egg Drop is a classic science class experiment for middle school or high school students. Students are given an egg to drop from a high point (such as the roof of the school) onto a hard surface (such as the parking lot). They must design a carrier for the egg to house it during the drop.
The Egg Drop Project
The Egg Drop Project started out as an experiment at Pasadena's Jet Propulsion Lab in the 1950s. The objective was to land a fragile object, an egg, when dropped from a great height. As time would reveal this experiment was a precursor to landing extremely expensive remote controlled rovers on Mar's surface to collect data. The experiment took ...
Egg Drop Project
Physics Behind the Demo. The Egg hitting the ground is a collision between the Earth and the Egg. When collisions occur, two properties of the colliding bodies are changed and/or transferred: their Energy and Momentum.This change and transfer is mediated by one or many forces.If the force is too strong, it can cause the shell of the egg to crack and break.
Egg Drop
In this exploration, students design, evaluate, test, and suggest improvements for a container that will protect their precious payload: an egg.. The Classic "Egg-Drop" experiment has been a standard in science instruction for many years. Essentially, students are asked to construct some type of container that will keep a raw egg from cracking when dropped from ever-increasing elevations.
Egg Drop
The Egg Drop project is a highly-versatile activity that can be used to introduce students to physics, materials science, and fluid dynamics. ... The process of slowing descent to resist the force of gravity has been used in a number of instances in history, and continues to be an important science - especially currently around emergency aid ...
Egg drop competition
A physics teacher on a lift drops a package designed to protect three eggs from a fall of ten meters. The egg drop contest is an experiment usually performed by college or primary school students. Competitors typically attempt to create a device that can keep a raw chicken egg intact when dropped from a height. Students are asked to build a device made from a limited or unlimited amount of ...
Physics principles of the Egg Drop
Eggs are seen falling from the sky, but it does not mean that the world is ending. It signals the annual physics' egg drop experiment. This annual event was held on Feb. 15 and Feb. 19 in the Foothill quad. This year's egg drop brought a plethora of creative and unique designs that implemented fundamental principles of physics.

Egg Drop Lab
Students drop their containers, then analyze factors which can minimize force on the egg. Optionally, students can complete a second round of the experiment if time permits. Students work in teams to design a container for an egg using provided materials. Lesson Files. Egg Drop Guidelines (.docx) Explore Momentum and Impact Force in an Egg Drop ...
What is the physics behind the egg drop experiment?
How does gravity affect the egg drop project? Gravity causes an object to fall to Earth when dropped. Drop an egg from eye level so that it breaks. When the egg hits the ground with a given force, the ground exerts the same force back on the egg. The faster the egg falls, the greater this force is. How is momentum used in an egg drop?
Egg Drop Project
Egg Drop Project. The egg drop is a classic science project that kids will love. Can you design a system that will protect an egg from a fall? Give it a try and find out. Use items from around the house to build something that will prevent eggs smashing all over the ground.
