1. Explain how the results from Parts 1 and 2 verify Newton’s Second Law. If heavier objects were accelerated by gravity at a greater rate, what result would you have expected in measuring the period of the two pendulums of the same length but with different masses for the bob?
2. How close were your results to the known value of g, 9.81 m/s2 based on your percent error? What kinds of errors could have resulted in the difference in your result versus the actual known value of g?
