Determining 'g' Using a Free-Fall Method - PRACTICAL - A Level Physics

In this video I go through an AQA Physics A Level Required Practical that uses a free-fall method experiment to calculate the acceleration due to gravity, g. (This is AQA Required Practical 3.) This is also the OCR A Level Physics PAG 1.1 Practical.

Dropping a steel ball bearing through light gates can be used to find the acceleration due to gravity. Recording the time taken for it to fall as you then change the distance between the gates allows a graph to be plotted and the value of 'g' to be determined.

See instructions for all the practicals at http://www.alevelphysicsonline.com/ye...

Thanks for watching,

Lewis
