Textbook Question
Chapter 1.1, Problem 1dT
Each person in your group should obtain a ruler and at least one ticker tape segment from the staff. All the tape segments were generated using the same ticker timer. Do not write on or fold the tapes. If a ticker timer is available, examine it so that you are familiar with how it works.
D. In your own words, describe a procedure you could use to calculate the speed of an object.
