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:Just a ballpark figure taking into account the human error, but probably within 1/8s.

What is the shortest time interval you think you would be able to measure with reasonable accuracy?

answer/question/discussion:1/8s

How does the percent error in timing intervals change as the time between the events gets smaller?

answer/question/discussion:The percent error will increase.

How accurately are you able to measure the positions of the ball and the pendulum in the initial video?

answer/question/discussion: Probably within an 1/8 or 1/4 of a second.
