OKay, i have to do the egg drop for class and I can't think of any ideas. All my trys have failed and the parameters are killing me.
It has to be:
-made up of 100% biodegradable products. No plastics, metals, rubber, sponges, real sponges, not even biodegradable styrofoam. Basically I can only use paper, food, glue, wood, plants(like cotton), tape, and string.
-No Parachutes(this part sucks) Defined as any material attached to your eggcraft in such a way that it will expand outward as it falls, catching air. They can be attatched in a floppy way, just not in a concave shape to cause drag.
-No larger than 20 inches in any direction
-No tape or glue must touch the egg.
Here are the grading parameters:
Mass of eggcraft(grams)~Percent Grade
>50g~75%
36-50g~80%
31-35g~85%
26~30g~90%
21-25g~95%
16-20g~100%
<16g~105%
I've exhausted my mind of choices and ideas and failures, any ideas?
