Egg Drop Challenge

 

 

Describe your prototype design.

Our prototype protects our egg because be have a box (made with a tissue box) and we have ear plugs in it with small blown up balloons and our egg is in 2 balloons that goes inside of the box and then we duck taped balloons on all sides so when it drops the balloons hit the ground first instead of the box with the egg.

How does your prototype protect the egg? It protects the egg by making sure the balloons hit the ground first (which have duck-tape around them so rocks don’t pop the balloons) and not the box with the egg in it.

Describe your design process, in detail.

  1. Looked at different websites to research and we talked about a plan.
  2. We drew a plan

What worked well in your design? Our design worked because the balloons around the box protects the egg inside.  My partner and I came up with a design that we agreed on.

What was challenging throughout this process? What would you do differently? What was challenging was that our groups balloons kept popping so we had to use a lot of balloons. I would make sure we blow up the balloons only when we need them so we don’t wast balloons.
