Can you measure distance without a tape measure?
well, a stopwatch and a speedometer will do. Get the speed and time of going through this distance, and multiply by them, you will get the number.
Does a student need to have a stopwatch need to measure a fall?

What experiment could you perform to measure the speed of sound in air when you are provided with a starters gun a stop watch and tape measure?
One person holds the gun and the stopwatch. The other person walks away, unrolling the tape measure ast they go - and stops at an agreed distance. The first person fires the gun - and starts the stopwatch. The second person signals when they hear the shot - and the stopwatch is halted. Divide the time taken for the shot to be heard by the measured distance - and you have the speed of sound.
What stopwatch used for?
to measure time
How can you find the speed of an object that is in motion?
-- Mark its location as you start your stopwatch. -- After some time has passed, mark its location again as you stop the stopwatch. -- Measure the distance between the two marks. -- Read the elapsed time on the stopwatch. -- Divide (distance traveled)/(time to travel the distance) . The quotient is the object's average speed during the interval. The shorter the measurement interval, the closer the result is to an instantaneous speed.

How can you determine how fast a thrower can pitch a ball if all you have is a ball and a stopwatch?
Mark off and measure the distance of the throw. Time the throw with the stopwatch. This will give you the feet per second. If you want miles per hour take that and multiply by 0.68
What can you use as a backup velocity meter?
In place of a velocity meter (speedomoeter), one can use a stopwatch or clock to measure the time elapsed to cover a fixed distance.
