Newton’s Universal Theory of gravity predicts that the distance, \(x\), covered by an object that has fallen for a length of time, \(t\), is given by: Determine the value of \(g\) (with uncertainty) by performing an experiment that will allow you to determine \(g\) by determining the slope of a line of best fit.
