Dropping paperclips on a coffee can.

Read about an interesting error analysis.
1. Does the string stretch too much?
develop the theory using equations of motion for free fall
1. derive the n squared rule. The initial height of the nth paperclip is proportional to n squared.
2. This lab allows us to measure g

%This code does passing situation.
% First we document and define variables.
% t = time.  
% I am subscript  r(red) trying to pass b (blue) slowpoke against 
% incoming g (green) 
tmax=2;

xr0=0; xb0=5; xg0=100; %initial positions
vr0=25; vg0=-30; 
a=5.5; %my acceleration (note this is 1/10 of a g=9.0)
t=linspace(0,tmax,100); %EXPERIMENT
%t = [0:.1:tmax];% where will we be 10 seconds later?
%the above numbers will late be proper inputs 

% start code

vb0=vr0; %always assume slowpoke and I are at same speed.

xr=  xr0  +  vr0.*t  +  .5*a.*t.^2; %this is an array just like t
