LET GO!!!

Yep... This was the phrase that i kept hearing before the experiment ended....

Gosh!!!! I just couldn't let go of the ball bearing...... This was mainly due to the intensification of the class.... One trial, and that's the thing which could majorly affect your marks!!!!!

So, let's start all over from the beginning!!! Hmm... So, we started off by measuring the horizontal displacement, which 0.8m.................................

Lastly, we should measure the time taken for the ball bearing to travel over that particular distance.... tatat........

So, the worst part was the range.. Imagine that we should get the ball drop on the target point which we had set earlier...... And, when you did that, Mr Tan would be coming all over to see, hoping that there's no cheating in progresssed........ too bad for us coz we're the first group to complete!!!!

So. back to the point, in order to work that plan, I shall first let go the ball bearing.....To be frank, i just didn't dare to do so.........I think it's mainly due to stress in my deep down heart.. I was really worried about the outcome of the experiment........

Finally, Mathew let go the ball........ travelling down......

"POP!", the sound that i heard after 0.44s (calculated).......

"VERY GOOD", the next phrase that I had listened to..... Thank GOD!!!! We hit the bull eye!!! (wrong alignment)

10 marks were given..... Whoosh..........

lastly, a great thanks to my teammate, who are Paalini, Thillaga, and Wen Fei!!!!! i really enjoy this experiment.......

After the experiment, my hatred towards Physics has greatly reduced!!!!!!
