AP Physics students launch eggonautsPosted on Oct 18, 2005
Seniors in AP Physics classes participated in the eggonaut project on October 17. The students were challenged to combine their knowledge of forces to design a rocket to safely carry an uncooked egg upwards and land the egg without breaking it. The accelerating force was provided by a bicycle pump that pumped air into soda bottles containing varied amounts of water. Working in teams, the students received points for “egg survival” and “time aloft.” The students enjoyed the opportunity to put to practice concepts learned in class while enjoying a fun project.
