Investigating the material strength of everyday objects, an experiment titled "How Strong Are Eggshells?" has been conducted. The study involves a simple set-up where a varying number of eggs are tested to determine the mass they can support before breaking. The results are recorded in a table format, listing the number of eggs alongside the corresponding mass in grams that each group of eggs could withstand. The table is structured to show results for groups of three, four, and five eggs, providing insight into the eggshells' durability and how it changes with the number of eggs used in the test.

Additionally, a separate experiment explores the relative strength of cardboard and paper. This is demonstrated through another results table that compares the two materials by recording how many pennies sheets of paper and cardboard can hold before failing. The table is designed to display the number of sheets of paper and cardboard tested against the number of pennies they could support. This comparative analysis between cardboard and paper provides a clear and structured overview of the material strength of each, allowing for an educational comparison of their respective capacities to bear weight.
