    every 2cm from 17cm until it reaches 25cm (i.e. five values). Ten oscillations are measured for each length and divided by ten and this is repeated ten times for each length. An average period is found for each of these lengths along with their uncertainties using the equations (3) and (4). A graph needs to be plotted with the period of the y-axis and 2π√L on the x- axis leading to a gradient of 1/√g. Two lines of best-fit are to be found; one using the standard high/low method and secondly one…
