What are some ways this error might be reduced? . Identify any sources of systematic error in this experiment. (Systematic errors - errors inherent in the experimental set up which cause the results to be skewed in the same direction every time, always too large or always too small.)

Explanation / Answer

6 Follwing errors occur during this experiment

a) Of all these errors the greatest error occurs due to the stopper not moving in a perfect horizontal circle. Because of this the mass of the stopper comes into play.

b) To reduce this error one should try to reduce the angle between the horizontal plane and the stopper, and try to whirl the stopper in a horizontal circle.
