Description
This is a very simple app that uses basic physics to tell you the height of a cliff or the depth of a well. All you do is time how long it takes for the object to hit the ground and let science do the rest. You can even measure the height of a cliff from the ground if you throw a rock right up to the top and start timing at the apex. This app was created by Science/Design/Creativity YouTuber Mark Rober.
Ratings and Reviews
Fantastic! And smart science
This App is very smart! It uses the Newton’s 2nd Equation of motion. Which is
16 x (Time in the air T To B) power of 2
Which is. FIND out the time it took from top to bottom
Then times by the power of 2 and the number u get times by 16 and you will get how much feet. Let’s say it took 5 seconds from falling off a cliff u will times to the power of 2 (5x5=25)
Then times it by 16 (16x25=400) so that cliff you just jumped off is about 400 Ft.
Works well
I often measure heights by counting the seconds myself. This is much better and more accurate. It’d be great if this one-trick pony could learn more tricks, including:
1. Distance to a lightning strike (or any other flash/puff of smoke to sound combination).
2. Height of objects from beneath. This is the opposite measure. One trick is to position yourself 45 degrees from the top and then pace off the distance to the object. The pace distance is the height.
Great accurate app
You know what makes this app good, Mark Rober made it. This apps is used to measure the height of something using time. It is a very accurate app. The only thing that’s makes it not accurate is our human hands trying to turn the time off in time. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
