OK, Here is the problem,
I was "Notified" today at dinner, that "I" was selected by Amanda for
her science project assistant. Here is the task. We have until Monday night
to design, build and "Test" a protective shell to house an Egg, (not hard
boiled but raw). It must protect the Egg in a toss from a 35' building roof.
If the egg survives unbroken, she gets a 100, if it brakes she gets a "0".
Each student "Picked" their partner, (parent or sibling), at school. The
instructions read that we can use "Any" resource to construct the protective
case, (IE, internet, friends, Nasa Employees whatever). The outside diameter
of the "Protective Case" can be no larger than 12". Our first thoughts are
to wrap the egg in small bubble wrap, inside larger bubble wrap and then
encase it in some form of protective case. That is our basic Idea. Anyone
ever done this successfully ??? We need help and have to construct and test
the prototype by NLT Sunday.
