Question????

Is it possible to drop an egg into a glass of water without touching the egg?

Hypothesis:

We think that it is possible to drop an egg into a glass of water without teaching it because you can take something else other than your hand to push it in the glass of water.

Materials:Cardboard tube

Pie pan

Eggs

Water

A large drinking glass

Tray (optional)

Food coloring

Control/Variables:

(Control) The thing that stayed the same was the egg because the egg did not crack

(Independent Variable) The thing that changed was the length of the cardboard tube

(Dependent Variable) The thing that did not change was the drop of the egg into the glass of water

Data/Observation:

Tube Size

The water slash was really close to

the jar.The egg was close to the table so it wan't a

big splash.The splash was

higher from the table and the splash was

bigger.

8 inches

4 inches

Approximate Measurement of

Water splash

The water splash was not far from the

jar.4 inches

It was a small splash but not big enough to be a big splash.

The egg crack because we put the egg on a taller tube.

Observation

Analysis:

While we were video taping the egg did not

move just the pie pan and the

cardboard tube because we only moved the pie pan not the egg.

Conclusion:

We all thought the egg would not drop into the glass of water because the pie pan did not look sturdy enough to

drop the egg into the glass of water.

We think we are a 5 because the egg drop was so easy and simple.
