The result of the experiment is 9.74 m/s2 which is 0.6% less than the theoretical acceleration value of 9.8 m/s2. Our result are accurate because time intervals are 1/60 s, which gives us more dots on the sheet. The more data points (time intervals) we have, the more accurate are the measurements....
