I claim that my egg drop would have survived until 3 meters. First, my egg didn't survive 3 meters.

It would have, but it didn't because my parachute's suspenders (string) fell off and my back up parachute ripped. Also, the latch (tape) fell off and it opened and hit the ground. My projects is 111 g. With the egg and if you multiply it by 9.8 m/s2 you get 1087.8 newtons. When it hit the ground, the bottle cracked and my egg seeped through it. Next, the 3 things that I could have done to improve my egg drop. Now, this is what I could have done, I could have taken off the wings because they were decoration and extra weight. Also, I could have used duck tape instead of normal tape. Third, I should have changed the latch because the tape wasn't sticky enough. Furthermore, my egg drop was minimized by a great amount. It did so because my parachutes fell off and it started ipping through the air and increasing it's fall speed. As it was ipping the latch holding it closed fell off and it opened. Lastly, it's impact on the ground was so hard that, as I said already, the bottle got a crack in it and my egg seeped through. In conclusion, my egg didn't survive the 3 meters.
