. The free fall distance was 1753 mm. The times for the release and catch recorded on the fall experiments were in millisecond: 222.22 800.00 61.11 641.67 0.00 588.89 11.11 588.89 8.33 588.89 11.11 588.89 5.56 586.11 2.78 583.33   Calculate the time taken for the fall for each experiment. Calculate for each fall the acceleration based on time and distance. Calculate the mean of the accelerations. Give in the answer window the calculated mean of accelerations in m/s2.
