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):

You can measure as close as a hundredth of a second with some human error.

•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 .1 will be the closest, again due to human error.

•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 percentage of error gets higher because it is harder to get small increments of time correct when a human is responsible for stopping the timer.

•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):

It is difficult to get an accurate measurement due to lack of clarity in the video.
