Egg Drop Experiment!
Kane and Hope did a gravity experiment to find out which method of protection causes the fewest number of eggs to break when dropped from a window onto the ground.
Here is how they did the egg drop experiment:
Kane and Hope decided to test 4 types of protection for the eggs.
Kane dropped the eggs in the same way from the same window height to the ground below.
Hope examined the dropped eggs and recorded the broken egg data in a chart.
The team ran three trials using one dozen raw eggs for each trial.
They dropped three eggs for each type of protection.
Here is the chart Hope used to record the results of their egg drop experiment. Look carefully at the chart.
