Science can be used to relieve the humanitarian crisis in Iraq by identifying a way to decelerate the speed of the air drops so we can deliver more safely. Evidence from the egg drop shows that the mass and weight of a container greatly affect how fast it falls. This means that a lighter and wider air drop would deliver the food more safely, making it easier to send more packages to the Yazidi people. Another way science can be used to relieve the humanitarian crisis in Iraq is by using forces. For example, in the egg drop, we identified forces while the egg was falling. Some forces were gravity, air resistance, compression, and tension. This means that forces are important in an air drop container because if the forces are over-powered or unbalanced, then the air drop container will accelerate too fast, crush on impact and the like, and break once it hits the ground.
