Egg Drop Experiment


My name is Alanie Quiles and this is my first structure of the egg drop experiment. My lab partner and I created this structure by using three car wash sponges, dish sponges, cotton balls, and rubber bands. Most importantly, we made a hole that will support the egg in the middle and top sponge as you can see in the picture above. Next, we cut up a dish sponge and used strips of it to cover the tip of the egg and also stuffed some cotton balls for some extra protection to the tip of the egg and used a rubber band to secure it all in place. Then, we put the top sponge that also had a hole cut into it on top of it all. Finally, we stacked all three sponges on top of each other and secured the entire structure with two more rubber bands. I tested the structure on a table and just as I supposed the egg did not break inside of the structure.
