3. What is about
 The Egg Drop is a classic science demonstration
that illustrates Newton's Laws of Motion, namely
inertia. The challenge sounds so simple... just get
the egg into the glass of water, but there are a few
obstacles. The egg is perched high above the
water on a cardboard tube, and a pie plate sits
between the tube and the water
What is going to happen?
The egg is going to fall inside the glass
because of the inertia

4. Conclusion
 according to Mr. Newton’s First Law, once the egg was moving, it
didn’t want to stop. The container of water interrupted the egg’s
fall, providing a safe place for the egg to stop moving so you
could recover it unbroken.
Scientific explanation of your
experiment
 Credit for this one has to go to Sir Isaac Newton and his First
Law of Motion. He said that since the egg is not moving while it
sits on top of the tube, that’s what it wants to do - not move. You
applied enough force to the pie pan to cause it to zip out from
under the cardboard tube (there’s not much friction against the
drinking glass). The edge of the pie pan hooked the bottom of
the tube, which then sailed off with the pan. Basically, you
knocked the support out from under the egg. For a brief
nanosecond or two, the egg didn’t move because it was already
stationary (not moving). But then, as usual, the force of gravity
took over and pulled the egg straight down toward the center of
the Earth.
