Asst 1 Q 2
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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):
The timer measures past 3 decimal points which is very accurate. The only thing that may be an issue is how fast you click the button, your own reflexes.

What is the shortest time interval you think you would be able to measure with reasonable accuracy?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):
It would be in tenths of a second, very accurate readings.

How does the percent error in timing intervals change as the time between the events gets smaller?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):
The closer the interval gets, the less likely chance you will be able to click the button as fast as you would need to making the percent error greater.

How accurately are you able to measure the positions of the ball and the pendulum in the initial video?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):
You can measure the position of the pendulum a bit easier than the ball in my opinion but both are measurable to the thousanth.
