Myth Busters Ep. 1, November 5, 2012

The myth's presented were the Archimedes Mirror myth and the car punch myth.
The word plausible means possible, the word busted means not possible, and the word confirmed means that it will work.
Both of the myths were busted.
If i were testing those myths I would have got more people to aim mirrors and on the other one I would have used a piston to punch the car.
I would want them to test if you can actually hit two birds with one stone.

Evolution and natural selection

Evolution is the process of a species changing over time by means of natural selection. Natural selection is when a certain variation or mutation of a species survives better than normal or different varieties of the same species. This process causes that variation of the species to reproduce and thus slowly fading out the original variation of the species over eons. The process will repeat itself over and over and slowly creating an entirely new species.

actual egg drop

Today (april 18, 2012) we did an egg drop. An egg drop is where we each make a device that stops an egg from breaking. Lots of the designs worked. My design was a small 8x8x12 cardboard box with an egg suspended in the middle of the box with rubber bands, it worked. My favorite deign was Lawson's, He had a small pouch attached to a bunch of balloons, it worked also. It was a lot of fun building the devices, plus my design was a lot of people's favorites.

egg drop

1. My guess for the height of when an egg will break from a fall is 85 cm

2. The actual height of when an egg will break from a fall is 13 cm.  T_T

3. My guess for how many paper towels needed to save the egg from breaking from a cm fall is: 40

4. The actual amount for how many paper towels are needed to save the egg from breaking from a cm fall is: 10   T_T

forager bees

Forager bees main job is to forage for pollen nectar and blooming flowers. The forager bees main source of food is nectar and honey. If food in not available they may have to be fed, this is an important thing to keep in mind for beekeepers. The forager bees can venture up to 2 miles away from their hive.
