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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
I think you can measure with the timer program to approx. .001
#$&*
• What is the shortest time interval you think you would be able to measure with reasonable accuracy?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
I think we could probably measure with reasonable accuracy to .01.
#$&*
• How does the percent error in timing intervals change as the time between the events gets smaller?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
From reading the text on percent error again I am unsure of how percent error works exactly especially in a situation such as this. I would assume that if the time between the events gets smaller that that smaller difference in time would require the timer to be more precise and there to be greater increase in error. However I am unsure how to formulate a percent error for this.

• How accurately are you able to measure the positions of the ball and the pendulum in the initial video?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
I am unable to measure the positions in the video very well because of the poor quality on the video, although it does help improve the accuracy by having it on video by allowing you to pause and play the video at different time intervals.
