You live on a planet far from ours. Based on extensive communication with a physicist on earth, you have determined that all laws of physics on your planet are the same as ours and you have adopted the same units of seconds and meters as on earth. But you suspect that the value of g, the acceleration of an object in free fall near the surface of your planet, is different from what it is on earth. To test this, you take a solid uniform cylinder and let it roll down an incline. The vertical height h of the top of the incline above the lower end of the incline can be varied. You measure the speed vcm of the center of mass of the cylinder when it reaches the bottom for various values of h. You plot v2cm (in m2/s2) versus h (in m) and find that your data lie close to a straight line with a slope of 6.42 m/s2.
