Question

Physics (multiple choice):
* Please give a brief explanation of your reasoning

You have a raw egg and a cooked (hard boiled) egg. If you exert the same torque on each of them for the same period of time, which one spins faster in the end?

a) The raw egg
b) The cooked egg
c) They are the same
d) The process is random and unpredictable

Answer 1

Well, you can easily look it up. The cooked egg will spin easier and much longer because

Hard-boiled eggs are solid inside. In the raw egg, the liquid inside the egg slides about and stops the egg from spinning as fast.
