The problem:
Answer the following:
How accurately do you think you can measure the time between two events using the TIMER program?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
I am still trying to learn and become accustom to the TIMER program, for some reason I just do not use it the right way. However, if I knew how to use it properly I could measure two events pretty accurately, since it is mostly the computer's job. #$&*
What is the shortest time interval you think you would be able to measure with reasonable accuracy?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
With the most reasonable accuracy, I believe between 2-3 seconds would be the shortest time interval to time.

How does the percent error in timing intervals change as the time between the events gets smaller?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line): The percent error would grow larger as the time between each event becomes smaller. It is harder to get an accurate measurement as the time interval becomes shorter. This leads to greater chance of error and higher percent error.

How accurately are you able to measure the positions of the ball and the pendulum in the initial video?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line): I would not say I could measure the ball and pendulum that well due to the quality of the video. Under the circumstances, I believe I did fine though!
