A1 practical: Measuring g (falling ball) example results

The uncertainty in the distance, actually the height was taken as 0.001 m which is also the least count of the measuring instrument. We could have taken the half value or 0.0005 m as the uncertainty however given the random error due to parallax error and measuring technique we decided that the given uncertainty was reasonable.The uncertainty in t (raw data) which is 0.0001 s is the least count of the measuring device.
