Principle

The time it takes for an object to fall a certain distance is measured. Assuming uniform accelerated motion the gravitational acceleration g is determined using the known distance-time ratio. g is a constant for the heights measured.

Benefits

  • Simple and clear setup
  • Achievement of an elemental learning objective with little effort
