Determine acceleration of a ball after it is dropped.
1. Record the time it takes for the object to fall 0.80 m. To
do this, you will take a video of the ball falling on the
ground from the height of 0.80 m three times. Then you
will find out the time by analyzing your videos as follows:
You need to upload the video file to your computer and
analyze it. First, find the frame rate or FPS (frames per
second): In "File Explorer", right click on the video file,
select "Properties" then "Details", and copy the frame
rate (round it to an integer) to your report. A common
frame rate is 30 FPS, which means that each frame in
the video is 1s/30 = 0.033333 seconds apart. We will use
half of it or 0.016667 seconds to be the uncertainty in
time t. (Note we kept 5 non-zero digits when calculating,
and only at the end of our calculation we wound to the
right number of sig. figs.) Play the video using software
that can play each frame, like "Windows Media Player".
Use "Right click - Enhancements - Play speed settings"
to play the video frame by frame using the buttons, and
locate two frames when the marble is at either end of the
ruler (which should be 0 and 80.0 cm). Read the
positions of the marble in each frame and count the
number of steps between them. This information allows
us to find the distance d (which should be 80.0 cm) and
the time t.
An example of how to report your video analysis is as
follows (this is from one of my previous colleagues, Yu
Sue at Langara College, which she wrote on a totally
different lab): The frame rate of my video is 30 FPS.
There are 17 steps between (27.7 ± 0.2) cm and (0.2 ±
0.3) cm; Distance d = 27.7 cm - 0.2 cm = 27.5 cm. Time
for this distance t = 17×1s/30 = 0.56667 s, dt = 0.5×1s/30
= 0.016667 s= 0.02 s. It is very important that you read
the marble's position from the same edge, and count the
number of steps rather than the number of frames: there
are 17 steps between 18 frames.
3. Do the process above for three falls and fill in the table
below (remember to use the proper # of sig. figs.)
Trialt (s)

What is the mean time, mean = (t₁+2+3) / 3?
4. Compare this time to theory (free-fall). You need to
show all the steps (diagrams, coordinates, parameters,
equations with symbols, solving for unknown) below on
how you found the falling time from kinematics equations.
