Egg Drop Challenge Iteration #1

2) total # of achievments: 23



3)



4)



Our total weight was 24 grams without the egg and could also fit inside of a cigar box so we earned 3 more points there.

We earned 3 achievment for hitting the second ring of the target.

Our egg cracked but remained in good form, only minor damage, no massive breaking, so we earned 3 points.


We used geometry and algebra/physics to calculate projections for our project as shown in the pistures, earning us 2 more points, we also earned 2 points for sketches, and 2 points for material planning.


5) Designs with parachutes were very very effective and mostly got the egg securely, but i did like our design and thought it yielded good results except for the egg breaking beacause i threw our apparatus at the target instead of dropping it (i was going for speed). I think we could have made our orject smalled and more padded. We could have also worked on our launching to make the design more accurate.
