A students is investing gravity and falling objects she drops theee balls and times how long it takes each ball to hit the ground what is the mostly likely source of error

1 answer

The most likely source of error in this experiment is human error, specifically in the timing of when the ball hits the ground. The student may not start the timer at the exact moment the ball is dropped or may not stop the timer precisely when the ball hits the ground. Other sources of error could include variations in the height from which the balls are dropped, air resistance, and measurement errors in determining the height and timing.
