Make a graph of period squared (on Y) versus length (on X) of the pendulum. Why is this graph supposed to display a straight line? 7. Draw the best fit line (don't hit any data points) use two points on the line that are not data points and calculate its slope. Cilearly show the two points you used to calculate slope on the graph. Show your calculation. Do not forget to include units. 8. Calculate g from the slope, how is the slope related to g? . Determine the percentage error between the g found at Step 8 and standard value of -9.80 m/s2 %error= 1 Measured g. gsarded, gnadad x 100

Explanation / Answer

In order to calculate the average, you need to take all the values of length you have and sum them up. Now divide that sum with the number of readings you took. For example - in case of L2 , the sum of all lengths is 5.0648. As we have three lengths, we get average as 5.0648 / 3 = 1.688
