- Posted below is a picture of a data table and a diagram of an experiment. In the experiment you rolled a marble down a ruler ramp off the end of a coffee table to observe projectiles and conservation of energy. You do 3 trials for each initial height. Each height is measured in meters. h= initial height of marble off of table Y= height of table off floor X= horizontal distance marble goes from edge of table to where it strikes the floor a) use the table to find information you need to solve for theoretical range and % of error in measured range.arrow_forwardQUESTION 2 Consider the following dataset and separator. What is the width of margin (distance between the two paralel lines )? Please use real numbers instead of rations. Eg, f your result is1/2, enter 0.5 w.x+b = +1 w.x+b =0 w.x+b= -1 2.0 0. 05 VW.warrow_forward25. A student wants to perform an experiment where they have to measure the time interval for a ball bearing rolling down a slope (as with your first practical), in order to determine the acceleration on the ball-bearing. They take 1 measurement for every distance (they move the end of the measuring equipment 10 cm further way every time), and then they plot a graph. This graph comes out with very scattered values that do not form a straight line at all. What could be the reason for this? Choose all correct answers. A. They should have taken more than one measurement at every distance. B. The stopping wires might have malfunctioned sometimes, so they should have made sure that the stopping wires only touched the metal when the ball bearing rolled over it. C. The graph is fine with only one value measured per distance. It is the acceleration that was not consistent. Nothing needs to be changed. D. The graph axes need to be adjusted to make the data show a straight line.arrow_forward
