"When the ball leaves the ramp at Point B, students measure the horizontal" distance traveled. They repeat the experiment five times, being careful to release the ball from the same starting Point A and find the average horizontal distance traveled to be 2.0 m. One student suggests they use a stopwatch to find the time the ball is in the air whereas another student suggests they use a meter stick. Given these materials, describe the procedure students should follow to minimize error and calculate the speed of the ball as it leaves the ramp.

Speed of ball as it leaves ramp is 2 m/s

Explanation:

From the question it is given that the average distance traveled by ball from point A to B is 2.0 m and the time taken is 1sec

one student is using stopwatch to calculate the time taken by ball and another student is using meter stick to calculate the distance traveled

since speed of ball is given by v =  thus,

the speed = 2 m/s

now for minimizing the error of speed it is necessary to record the readings by single students at-least 5 times and take average

by doing this, the error of speed calculation will be minimum as the it decreases the error due to random error of system caused by taking the reading  by different students

both the fifth and fourteenth amendments of the united states contain a due process clause. while the fifth amendment describes a legal obligation of the federal government to not deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law, the fourteenth amendment applies the same obligation to the states to guarantee that all of the states provide fair procedures as well.
