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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
Fairly accurately but there are errors to be made with positioning an object, judging the stopping point, and reaction time.
What is the shortest time interval you think you would be able to measure with reasonable accuracy?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
1/2 second
How does the percent error in timing intervals change as the time between the events gets smaller?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
The percentage of error is greater because the time allowed for error is a much greater percentage of a smaller number.
How accurately are you able to measure the positions of the ball and the pendulum in the initial video?
