This document summarizes an experiment investigating Newton's first law of motion through the use of an uncooked egg, shoebox, and duct tape. The experiment involves placing the egg in the shoebox unrestrained and restrained with tape, and forcibly sliding the shoebox into a wall. When unrestrained, the egg cracked upon impact with the wall, but remained intact when restrained with tape, demonstrating that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force, in accordance with Newton's first law.
4. Hypothesis:
• Newton's first law of motion will be mostly
about force and trying not to get the egg to
break because if were gonna push the egg
into the wall that will mean were using force
to push the box and the egg might break
when it's not taped down but if it is I really
don't think the egg will break the tape is just
like a seatbelt and the egg is just like a
passenger :
7. Procedure
• 1.place the uncooked egg into the shoebox
• 2. Restrain the uncooked egg by taping it to the bottom of the shoe
box with two pieces of duct tape.
• 3. Forcefully slide the shoe box on the floor into the wall
• 4. Open the shoe box and observe
• 5. Place the uncooked egg into the shoe box on the floor into the wall
• 6.forcefully slide the shoe box on the floor in to the wall
• 7. Open the shoe box and observe
8. Data and observation
• The egg at first the egg did not crack then
we added more force and it crack
11. Conclusion:
• We learned all about Newton's first law of
motion
• I really like this investigation because it tells
mostly about force I like force because if you
didn't have force and you were biking and
you weren't using a lot force:
