Question

Use the table of data from an investigation on the effect of gravity on falling objects to answer the question.

Student Ball 1 (seconds) Ball 2 (seconds) Ball 3 (seconds)
Ziva 0.52 0.51 0.51
Jade 0.51 0.52 0.52
Eduardo 0.50 0.50 0.50
Owen 0.50 0.37 0.51

Four students investigated the effect of gravity on falling objects. The students all used the same three balls and dropped them from a height of 8 meters. They recorded the time it took for each ball to hit the ground. Which student most likely had an error in the results?

Answer 1

Based on the data provided, it is most likely that Eduardo had an error in the results. Eduardo consistently recorded a time of 0.50 seconds for all three balls, which seems unlikely given that the other students recorded slightly different times for each ball.
