Physics in Action: The Egg Drop Experiment
Is that a bird? Is that a plane? No, it’s our Physics Egg Drop Experiment! Every year, after we complete the unit on Forces, Impulse and Momentum, the students in my Physics class have an opportunity to test out their engineering and creativity skills in a project where they are tasked with protecting two eggs from breaking when dropped from the 4th floor of our townhouse building into the garden.
