Lab 4

 

 

1. How can we design a safe and durable playground surface? 

To investigate the main question from lab, we were directed to construct a safe environment made out of many different surfaces to keep an egg safe being dropped from 1 meter high up. My group experimented with all of the materials that were provided, but ultimately decided on going with rubber chips, hay, and plastic wrap. When we initially began to drop the egg from 1 meter, we were successful in keeping it safe. When we were challenged to increase our length to 2 meters, we were not as successful as we have a few of our eggs crack. 

2. Thursday's lecture consisted of taking our Physics module exam.
