Question

Which other procedures will you suggest to study Newton's Laws of motion in the Laboratory?

Answer 1

Newton's first law explains the concept of inertia, which is the tendency of objects to resist changes in motion. Today, we're going to see how the mass of an object influences its inertia. If you need to read up on inertia, you can do that in this lesson: Laws of Inertia: Definition & Formula.

Materials

Paper towel tube

Pie plate

12-ounce glass

12 ounces of water

Extra large egg

Small egg (still large enough to fit on top the paper towel tube)

Access to running water and soap

Balance

Data table:

Mass of eggObservations

Steps

1. Take the mass of both eggs and record this in your data table.

2. Fill your glass with 6 ounces of water.

3. Center the pie plate on top of the glass.

4. Next, center the paper towel tube vertically on top of the pie plate.

5. Gently place the smaller egg on the paper towel tube, making sure it sits on top of the tube.

Experiment setup

5. You're going to smack the pie plate out from under the paper towel tube and egg. You won't touch the paper towel tube or the egg, only the pie plate. You might need to try this more than once to apply to appropriate force.

6. Repeat steps 2-5 with the larger egg and observe any differences compared to the small egg.

Safety Tip!! Raw eggs may contain pathogens.

7. If there are any breaks to your eggs, wash your hands and carefully clean up the spill with a cleaning product.
