\section{Discussion}  improvements\\   error\\ All of our data was taken from the oscilloscope, which means that we were quite limited in our methods of data collection. for example, as described in our Methids, we found the precession frequency by averaging the frequency over ten cycles and dividing by ten. Although this method is much more accurate, we determined that we could only measure frequency to a precision of 18 Hz, and likewise we could only measure the amplitude to a precision of 0.08 V. Had we been using different equipment or an oscilloscope with finer resolution, we might have obtained more precise results.
