Lol...I advise you to analytically or numerically solve this problem as I doubt your teacher would accept your answer. I admit solving for b is a bit tedious but you already got A! Keep on working...The yolk and white of a hard boiled egg are solid and dense, making the center of gravity lower and easier to balance on a small surface like a spring.
Yes, it is possible to crack a hard boiled egg on a spring if enough force is applied. However, the solid structure of the egg makes it more difficult to crack compared to a raw egg.
The spring does not have a significant effect on the texture of a hard boiled egg. The egg remains solid and intact, with no changes in texture.
As long as the egg was properly cooked and handled before being placed on the spring, it should be safe to eat. However, it is not recommended to eat food that has been in contact with non-food objects like a spring.
No, a raw egg will not balance on a spring due to its liquid contents. The raw egg's center of gravity is higher, making it more difficult to balance on a small surface like a spring.
