it's a lab

will experimentally determine the acceleration due to gravity by timing how long it take for an object to fall to ground.

You can perform this experiment yourself using any object, e.g. a ball, a pen or something solid that can easily be timed. Using a meterstick or a measiring tape, mark 5 different heights on a wall. Let the range be from 0.5m to 2.0m atmost. Don't drop anything from over 2.0m as it could break as well. You also want to avoid drag. Hold the object still at a marked height, then drop it 5 times from each height. Using a stopwatch, or using your phone (most have stopwatch applications), measure the drop time. Start when you let go and stop when it hits the floor. Report all the data but use the average drop time from each height for the graph. Use your 1-D motion knowledge to relate the height (displacement downwards) to the drop time, t and the acceleration due to gravity, g. -h = -%gt2 Plot a graph of height, h as a function of t2 and do a linear fit using EXCEL Find the slope and relate it to the coefficient of t2 from your equation. Then find the value of g, call it gm;0 Find the % error between gem, and gt}, Comment on the sources of error in the experiment. Submit a regular lab report following the template, all typedi
