school project

[anb163]

I feel like half of my posts are asking you guys to help me with school, but every other time I have asked you guys have helped. Anyway I have a project for school. I have to build something to drop an egg from four stories. This is an advanced class so I cannot use any kind of packaging material like bubble wrap, paper, or food products. The smaller and lighter it is the better grade you get. I have tested three of my ideas and none of them have worked. If it breaks, I will get a low grade. I still have a few more ideas, but do any of you have any brilliant ideas. Thanks for you help.

great idea but no food whatsoever

I did this in high school and won. I got two stiff foam sponges (like the type you wash a car with), cut a half-egg shape in the center of each one and nestled the egg inside, then (not sure if you can do this next part) taped the sponges up using packing tape (maybe you can use electrical or duct tape?).

Good luck!

Try using something as a parachute to slow it down
