The value for θ taken experimentally is more reliable since the value for θ takenwith the protractor is based on just 3 readings which could have parallax error and it also has a much greater uncertainty.VI-4To find v02: we know,s=g2 v02cos2(θ) and g=980 cm/s21.

This couldbe caused if the ball was not released in the correct way, thereby giving it an initial velocity, which would alter calculations. The other reason could be due to parallax error while measuringfrom the reference line to the center of the dot at distance h.v0❑± σv0=177 ± 0.01 cm/s2v0❑± σv0=179 ± 0.01 cm/s2v0=193.82
