I have to do the egg drop project in physics. I need ideas.?
I am limited to 3 pieces of printer paper and scotch tape. That's it. We're going to be dropping the egg from the top of the bleachers. Any ideas are appreciated.

Hmm, wow... that's really limited. My guess would be to wrap the egg its self in a lot of tape to help reinforce the shell, then crumple your paper and tape in around the egg. Maybe try tearing the paper into a few pieces, then crumpling and taping, to create several little "shock absorbers".

i had to do that last year in tech but we were able to use anything we wanted. we made a padded box with a crate on the inside to hold the egg and cotton siding and 2 plastic bags as parrachutes. well it still cracked. maybe u can use paper as a parachutte and make like a cup holder for it or something. lol. have fun

Parachute. Take 2 foam earrings smaller than the egg. placed the egg between them, and use threads to hold it there. Now connect a great plastic sheet, ideally cut back out from a great procuring bag (use the low high quality ones! those are lighter), utilizing strings, to between the earrings to function because of the fact the parachute. stable good fortune on your undertaking!

you have to make it so that it will spiral downward and make sure the very tip of your egg faces the ground.
