Education & Reference - 16 October 2006

I am planning on becoming a teacher upon graduating from university. I love the company of children, but I know that they are hard to deal with. Should I start off teaching at the elementary level? Or should I start at the high-school level instead, instead? I want to teach at the primary educational level first so I can get experience before eventually becoming a university professor.

I'm sure we're all familiar with the classic egg drop experiment - build something so that when you drop an egg from a height, the contraption will make sure that the egg does not crack.

My first thought on this was, "Oh, this'll be easy" before I realized that the restrictions were.

RESTRICTIONS
- No foam
- No bubble wrap
- Must weigh 150 g or less, INCLUDING egg [I believe the egg is around 50 g, so that means the thing I use has to be less than or equal to 100 g]

The problem is, what am I going to make that weights 100 g? In reality, that is a really small amount, I think about 100 pennies equals 100 g.

I know I have to somehow distribute the force evenly around the eggshell, but right now, I'm completely stumped. I think I should also use different-density padding, but I have no idea what I'm going to do.

I'd love any ideas, suggestions, and comments to anyone who's willing to help.

Thank you in advance.

In all the other english speaking countries it is pronounced properly. Is it correct in the U.S. to call Uncle Herbert Uncle Erbert?
It sounds like a very silly affectation.

A bicyclist is coasting straight down a hill at a constant speed. The mass of the rider and bicycle is 80.0 kg, and the hill is inclined at 14.0° with respect to the horizontal. Air resistance opposes the motion of the cyclist. Later, the bicyclist climbs the same hill at the same constant speed. How much force (directed parallel to the hill) must be applied to the bicycle in order for the bicyclist to climb the hill?

He can't even begin to understand or comply with "time out." He never sits longer than 2 minutes, has started just walking up and shoving students and teachers (including me-ouch!). He must be given extremely simple 1-2 word commands (John-no push; John-stand; John-no computer;John-no teachers' desk). HOWEVER, he walks around and makes repetitive statements, as most autistic students do, & they reflect his intelligence-"Windows XP," (he throws fits because he can't get on the teachers' computer), "Start Menu," "Water-Oceans," "United States America," "Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday," "Read Book," (then he states book title) Today he read four pages, then threw himself back down in the floor to kick everyone. He often lays in the floor & makes repetitive sounds (numnumnum..) He has to learn not to hit, kick, throw things . I have a bruise from one of todays' kicks & he went to 2 students' desks & shoved them. Any ideas? Thanks
