Crash Helmets for Eggs...

Mr Jackson's Year 9 Physics group have been looking at Car Safety and rate of change of momentum for a car when it crashes. They have studied how crumple zones, air bags and seatbelts can reduce forces on passengers. Today, they designed a crumple zone for protect an egg if it is dropped from a height. Pictured is Mr Jackson showing how high the winning team dropped their egg, the winning egg design and the 'Dream Team'. Well done Year 9!
