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: Pretty accurate excluding human error when pushing start and stop.
• What is the shortest time interval you think you would be able to measure with reasonable accuracy?
answer/question/discussion: the shortest time interval being to the second.
• How does the percent error in timing intervals change as the time between the events gets smaller?
answer/question/discussion: the perfect error gets smaller.
• How accurately are you able to measure the positions of the ball and the pendulum in the initial video?
answer/question/discussion: not very accurate, considering the bad quality of the video and the speed of the video/experiment.
