That has got to do with the light shell of the egg and the pressure inside of the yolk moving downward. The pressure is then forced upwards from the floor and the shell can't cope. It has the floor pushing up and the yolk pushing down with gravity. The shell isn't made to support that kind of pressure and cracks.

How do you win egg drops?
If your egg doesn't break after its fall, you win.
How can you drop two eggs the fewest amount of times, without them breaking?
Suppose that there is a building with 100 floors. You are given 2 identical eggs. The most interesting property of the eggs is that every egg has it’s own “threshold” floor. Let’s call that floor N. What this means is that the egg will not break when dropped from any floor below floor N, but the egg will definitely break from any floor above floor N, including floor N itself. For example, if the property of the eggs is that N equals 15, those eggs will always break on any floor higher than or equal to the 15th floor, but those eggs will never break on any floor below floor 15. The same holds true for the other egg since they are identical. These are very strong eggs, because they can be dropped multiple times without breaking as long as they are dropped from floors below their “threshold” floor, floor N. But once an egg is dropped from a floor above it’s threshold floor Here is the puzzle: What strategy should be taken in order to minimize the number of egg drops used to find floor N (the threshold floor) for the egg? Also, what is the minimum number of drops for the worst case using this strategy? Remember that you are given 2 identical eggs which both have the same exact threshold floor. Your first instinct (especially if you are a programmer) may be to solve this problem using the binary search method. So, you think that maybe by dividing the “result set” in half each time you will be able to solve the problem and find the threshold floor for the eggs. In this case the “result set” is the floors in the building, so you start at floor 50 since that is half of 100. Let’s say we do start at the 50th floor, then what should we do if the egg breaks? This means that the answer is somewhere between the first and 50th floor. And we would be left with only 1 more egg since we started with 2 eggs. Now if we are following the binary search method, it seems that the next step would be to try dropping the remaining egg from the 25th floor. But what if it breaks at the 25th floor? Then we really don’t have an answer to the problem since we have not found the threshold floor for the eggs. Even if it doesn’t break and we decide to go to the next floor (which would be half of 25 or 12.5, which is approximately 13), then if it breaks at the 13th floor then we would still not have an answer to the problem. Clearly the binary search method does not work for us here, because we only have 2 eggs. The binary search method would be good in a scenario where we have an infinite number of eggs, but we now have to change our strategy and find a better solution. A new solution Since we have to find the answer with 2 eggs then why not do something like this: we start by dropping one of the eggs on the 10th floor: if it doesn’t break then we continue on to the 20th floor, then 30th, 40th… up to 100 in intervals of 10 until the first egg actually breaks. If the egg breaks on the 10th floor then we know that the threshold floor must be either the 10th floor or one of the floors below it – the egg will definitely break on any floor above the 10th floor, so we can eliminate all of the floors above the 10th. If the egg breaks on the 10th floor… So, the answer must be between floors 1 through 10. We can take the 2nd egg and drop it from the first floor. If it does not break on the first floor, but it does break on the 2nd floor, then we know that the 2nd floor is the “threshold” floor. And if it doesn’t break on any of the floors between 2-8, then we just continue up until the 9th floor, and if it does not break on the 9th floor then we know that the 11th floor is our threshold floor. This will take a maximum of 10 drops to figure out the threshold floor in this instance. What about the worst case solution? Well, the worst case using this method occurs when the threshold floor is the 100th floor. This means that we use 10 drops to get to the 100th floor, because we start from the 10th floor and go up in intervals of 10 up to the 100th floor, and the first egg will break on the 100th floor. And then we use another 9 drops with the 2nd egg because we have to test floors 90-99 to see if the threshold floor is somewhere in that range. This gives us a total of 19 drops, which is the absolute worst case scenario using this method. 2 Eggs 100 Floors Puzzle Solution We want to minimize the number of drops for the worst case, while still using an approach that works well for other scenarios. So, how can we do this? Well, we should rephrase that question and ask ourselves what is really holding us back here? The main reason why it takes such a large number of drops in the worst case with our approach above (19 drops) is because in order to test out the higher floors of the building we have to start at the lower floors of the building, and at that point we have already used a large number of drops just to get to that point.
Why egg did not break on concrete floor?
the foes is all over the egg like wen u put your back on a bead of nails
How do you not break an egg from a 25 feet building?
Put it in the elevator and send it to the first floor :)
How do you make a device that drops an egg 10 meters and can only be 4x4x4 inches in size?
Put it in a square Tupperware box packed in cotton wool so the egg won't break.
How do you get an egg in pocket god?
it is the dino egg and how to get it is easy. 1- go to the egg on the map. 2- go to the categories and press on the one with the island shape. 3- press the egg and an egg drops out of the sky that if you carry it and thro it on the floor 3 times it unleashes the T-rex. hope my answer helped
Why doesnt an egg break when it is dropped on a pillow?
An egg breaks when dropped on a hard floor because the hard floor exerts a large amount of force on the egg over a very short period of time.In order to reduce that force so that it does not break the egg, you have to somehow decrease the time it takes for the egg to come to an absolute stop.So if you dropped the egg on something like a pillow, the egg would exert the same amount of force as it would on a hard floor, only the pillow would not exert as much force on the egg as the hard floor. Instead, it would be pushed back because the egg is pushing with the most force. This creates the soft, cushioned landing.Therefore, the net force of the egg vs the pillow is decreased and total elapsed time is increased, causing the egg to fall on the pillow undamaged. :)
Why the hen's egg does not break when elephant stamps on it?
If an elephant stomps on a hen's egg, the egg will break. The elephant weighs to much not to break the egg.
How do you drop a real egg on a concrete floor without breaking it?
If that's a riddle, then the answer is: Any way you want! However you drop the egg, you won't break the concrete floor!! Hey, it doesn't say "without breaking THE EGG"!!!!! :D But if that's NOT a riddle, which it probably is, you would have to hold the egg REALLY LOW, and I mean REALLY, and then drop it. Or, you could try wrapping the egg with stuff like bubble wrap, or putting a carpet on the concrete floor. But, usually this is just a funny joke! :)
What do you think vinegar or salt water will break a egg?
The egg will break in vinegar.
Does an egg break on its own or when you sit on it?
An egg will break if you sit on it or if some kind of force acts upon it...an egg will not just spontaneously break into pieces.
