The problem:
Answer the following:
How accurately do you think you can measure the time between two events using the TIMER program?
between human error, timer accuracy/precision, and other elements, probably +/- .1
What is the shortest time interval you think you would be able to measure with reasonable accuracy?
+/- .1
How does the percent error in timing intervals change as the time between the events gets smaller?
increases due to friction in the mouse button, and a persons ability to reset themself.
How accurately are you able to measure the positions of the ball and the pendulum in the initial video?
+/- .5
