Can you help me answer this and explain the answer? Thank you.
Please, write a full clear answer and I'll rate up :)
Suppose you collected a data set in which you measured fall-times for different fall-heights. You plotted the data and fit the mathematical model, y = Ax2, to match the physical hypothesis, y = 1/2*g*t2. From the best-fit curve, you are told that the value of your fit-parameter, A, is 4.6 m/s2 ± 0.4 m/s2. Determine the value of g ± (delta)g for this fit-parameter value.
