Exploring systematic effects!

  1. There is some variation in the radius of the polystyrene spheres, and a good experimentalist would quantify those variations to see if there is a measurable effect on their results. Find the average measured value of v_f  and its standard deviation for each of your beads. Report the number of standard deviations between these individual values and the average for all beads. Comment on your results.
