I first thought of measuring it.  If this is for
a class, students love to see this done.  It can also
be a homework assignment.  If they know the stopping
time and initial speed they can calculate the rest.
Most students can get a digital watch for the timing,
but I guess with times less than a few seconds tenths
would be nice too.
