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 believe that can measure the timer program to X + or - .1

• 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):
I think number could be 5 + or - 1would digits apart in order to have reasonable accuracy. For example if the top number is over the bottom number then the equation is 1.05. This would mean .01/1.05= 1%.

• 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 decreases as the time between the events gets smaller.
@&
Would a shorter time interval, with say an uncertainty of +- .1 second, result in a greater or lesser percent error, and why?

• 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):
You are able to measure both positions of the ball and the pendulum video only to the smallest sig fig.

Pretty good, but I'm not sure you've thought through one of these questions. Check my note.
