Your friend releasesthe strip, and you try to pinch it as soon as possible afteryou see it begin to fall.The mark at the place where you pinch thestrip gives your reaction time. (a) How far from the lower dotshould you place the 50.0 ms mark? How much higher shouldyou place the marks for (b) 100, (c) 150, (d) 200, and (e) 250 ms?(For example, should the 100 ms marker be 2 times as far fromthe dot as the 50 ms marker? If so, give an answer of 2 times. Canyou find any pattern in the answers?)
