A simple pendulum is known to have a period of oscillation, T = 1.55s, Student A uses a digital stopwatch to measure the total time for 5 oscillations and calculates an average period T= 1.25s. Student B uses an analog wristwatch and the same procedure to calculate an average period for the 5 oscillations and finds T=16 s. Which period is more accurate, and why? Show solution.
