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):
Fairly accurately. The timer itself is very accurate, but I could cause many different
inaccuracies.
#$&*
What is the shortest time interval you think you would be able to measure with reasonable
accuracy?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
0.2 seconds
#$&*
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):
The percent error increases significantly as the time becomes shorter.
#$&*
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 was able to time them consistently with less percent error as the pendulum string got longer.
My accuracy got better throughout the experiment.
