What does popsicle sticks and paper do to protect your egg?
distributes/spreads out the force.
What is the process by which crystals form?
Crystallization
Gas pressure creates _________.
thrust
What is 3-D printing?
A process where a machine creates objects layer by layer using melted material such as plastic.
What kind of fluid is slime considered?
The rate at which an object changes its velocity/speed.
Why do crystals form when a hot solution with borax cools?
Hot water dissolves a LOT of borax, more than normal water can hold. As the water cools, it cannot hold as much borax anymore. The extra borax begins to leave the water and creates solid crystals.
