Video Analysis: Acceleration of Boeing Starliner

Here is a video analysis of the Boeing Starliner launch. In this video, I use two different programs. First, is Vernier's video analysis - www.vernier.com/product/video... Second is Tracker Video Analysis - physlets.org/tracker/trackerJS/
UPDATE. I manually tracked the motion of the Starliner in Vernier and found the same acceleration as with Tracker.
Here is the second part • Starliner Video Analys...

Thanks for the analysis, very inspirational to see physics with live examples!

Glad you enjoyed it!

It will be interesting to see what the issue may be with this.

[@DotPhysics]

It was with the auto tracker on vernier. I redid it manually and it worked.

@@DotPhysics Oh! Okay, great, thanks.

[@fizixx]

@@DotPhysics Ok, that's great!

[@brookestephen]

Are we using Tsiolkovsky's rocket equation?

[@DotPhysics]

No. In this case, I'm just measuring the acceleration. It's fairly constant over a short period of time because the mass doesn't change that much.
