To create an egg-carrying device without a parachute, you will need a few materials such as rubber bands, paper, straws, and a plastic cup. First, create a frame using the straws and secure it with the rubber bands. Then attach a paper "parachute" to the frame using more rubber bands. Finally, place the plastic cup on top of the frame to hold the egg.
It depends on how well you construct the egg-carrying device. If the frame is sturdy and the paper parachute provides enough air resistance, the egg has a higher chance of surviving the fall without a parachute. However, there is still a risk of the egg breaking upon impact.
Some tips for making a successful egg-carrying device include using lightweight materials, making sure the egg is securely held in place, and testing the device at different heights before attempting a higher drop. It is also helpful to have a backup device in case the first one fails.
Air resistance is the force that opposes the motion of an object through the air. When the egg-carrying device falls, the larger surface area of the paper parachute creates more air resistance, slowing down the fall and reducing the impact force on the egg.
There is always a risk of the egg breaking during this experiment, but it is possible to decrease the chances by carefully constructing and testing the device. Alternatively, you can use a hard-boiled egg instead of a raw one to ensure it does not break upon impact.
