Two students carried out an experiment to determine the speed of sound.
This is the method used,
1.
Student A stands 100 m away from Student B.
11
2. Student A bangs two blocks of wood together making a loud sound.
3. Student B starts a stopclock when he sees the blocks of wood bang together.
4.
Student B stops the stopclock when he hears the sound and records the time.
5.
The students repeat steps 2-4 several times.
(1)
The students calculated the speed of sound from their results.

Suggest one improvement to the students' method that would give a more accurate value
for the speed of sound.

The force acting on a beam was measured under the same operating conditions and a sample of 5 data points was collected. this process was repeated by 3 observers. the pooled standard deviations of these 3 data sets was 1.21. determine the true mean force using all pooled data (with a 95% probability). the result should look like this: true mean = mean +/- margin of error
