The Egg Drop Experiment

325 Words2 Pages
In the egg drop experiment that Tatum and I conducted the egg went through various stages of force, energy, and friction. These things were occurring before the egg was about to fall, while it was falling and after it fell. Before the egg fell it was being held a couple feet above the ground and as it was waiting to fall it consisted of potential energy. When the egg was released to fall gravity pulled it down to the ground, while the egg was falling it obtained air friction and kinetic energy. The impact that the egg has when it hit the ground is also friction. That is the stages of force, energy, and friction in our egg drop lab.

For the egg drop experiment Tatum and I were allowed to choose from a very limited list of protective items to
