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):
I beleive I can measure the time between two events fairly accurately using the timer program,
however not 100%. Between watching what the event is and my brain telling my hand to push the
timer and the timer stopping, there will be somewhat of a lag.

*
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):
I beleive the shortest time interval I would be able to measure with reasonable accuracy would be
about .01 seconds.

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 percent error in timing intervals gets higher as the time between the events gets smaller.

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):
I would say I was fairly accurate enough to do the assignment...probably within .01 like I
mentioned before. However since I have to watch the ball and the pendulum and then time it with
the timer there will be some degree of error.
