Lesson Plans: Time that Star! (Day 1, Animation 1)
Time That Star!
Day 1: t1 measurement
Animation will repeat in 5 seconds
Let time = 0 when the pendulum is released from being held over 75 cm. When the Time Keeper says go, the pendulum is released and the watch started. When the pendulum reaches its maximum movement (roughly over 25 cm), someone says "stop", and the watch is stopped. Repeat this measurement 5 times, making sure the Data Keeper records each trial on the Data Table under t1.
