What is Freefall Lab Report: Calculating g about?

The document describes a physics lab experiment to calculate the acceleration due to gravity, g, using a ticker tape timer. A mass was attached to a ticker tape and allowed to fall freely, imprinting dots on the tape at regular time intervals. Distances between dots were measured to calculate the average velocity over each interval. A graph of distance vs time squared was made, and its slope gave a calculated value of g = 1.39 m/s^2. A second graph of instantaneous velocity vs time was linear, and its slope
