Explanation / Answer

velocity average is the sum of intail and final divided by two

so Vavg = (Vi+ Vf)/2

if Vi = 0

Vf = 2 Vavg

----------------------------------


from table avg accleration = (9.9+9.91 + 10.07 + 9.918 + 9.862 + 9.921 + 9.876 + 9.973 + 9.802 + 9.977 + 9.918 + 9.919)/10

avag = 9.919 m/s^2

g is 9.8 m/s^2

% difference = ( 9.918 - 9.81)/9.81 *100

% difference = 1.2 %
====================

The acceleration due to gravity is what value is 9.8 m/s^2
