Experiments

Standing on Eggs

  1. Stand on eggs in a box, without shoes.
  2. A blown egg (shell only) supported vertically with weights being placed one by one onto it
    • How many kgs?

Dropping Eggs – Large and Small

  1. Two similar chocolate eggs (shape, density) but different shapes. Drop them. Use different distances (eg. 1 meter, 10 meters).
  2. Two small identical eggs. Ad horizontal velocity to other and drop the other without initial velocity. Use a camera.

Eggshells and Toothpaste

  1. Wash the eggs and dry them
  2. Coat two plain eggs with a good amount of toothpaste evenly (the other two eggs are reference).
  3. Fill two glasses with cola and the other two glasses with black coffee.
  4. Leave the experiment set-up for ~3 hours.
