What will a spinning hard-boiled egg do when you lift your finger after touching the egg?

This is a classic physics trick! Here's what happens:

* The egg will continue to spin. The spinning hard-boiled egg has angular momentum, which is the tendency of a rotating object to keep rotating.

* It might wobble a bit. The egg's center of mass might not be perfectly aligned with its axis of rotation, causing a slight wobble.

* It will eventually slow down and stop. Friction from the air and the surface it's spinning on will cause the egg to lose energy and slow down.
