The Egg Drop Experiment.

Newtons first law of motion explains that an object will stay still until acted on by another force. This is called inertia. This also applies to a moving object. A force will stay in motion unless acted on by another force. This was the topic for today's science lesson. We got an egg, a toilet roll, a plastic plate, and two plastic cups. One big and one small, both filled halfway with water. We put the water filled cup on a flat surface, and put the plate on top. We then put the used toilet roll and put the egg on top. Now we spring our hands towards the plate knocking it away. If the experiment is done properly, then the egg should fall into the water. This experiment was fun. I liked experimenting with different ways to hit the plate and the different sizes of cup. Eventually, Me and my friend Rautaki's egg cracked and its yolk (Brains) came out. We had another try with a new egg that we named Eggy. Eggy had a little face and lasted longer than our last egg. He had a few bumps and scratches but eventually smashed. R.I.P Eggy. You will live forever in our hearts. But ye. I really enjoyed this experiment and it was one of my favourites so far.

P.S Pictures coming soon!
