We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

You will need material properties for the apple skin and the apple fruit that is under the skin.  These two materials have very different properties. Do some research on the internet and see if you can find some published mechanical properties for at least these two materials. You might choose to ignore the apple core material in this first model.

If you can't find apple material properties, I suggest you choose to simulate the drop test on an object that you can find material properties for.
