The dominant hand reacts faster due to the fact that there are considerably more co-contractions in your preferred hand as you use your dominant hand for every action that you complete only to be aided by the non-dominant hand. All the actions completed by the dominant hand give it an advantage as it is 'practicing'; therefore making the reaction faster. When the ruler drops, the receptor cells (which are the eyes in this case, seeing the ruler drop) respond to the stimulus (the ruler) and set up an electrical impulse in a sensory neurone. When the impulse reaches the central nervous system, another impulse is set up in the relay neurone the electrical impulse then travels up the motor neurone which passes to an effector organ where it triggers a response in the cells of the effector organ, i.e., the hand. This process occurs at a faster rate in the preferred hand in contrast to the non-preferred hand due to more frequent oscillation movements in the dominant hand.

Why is first-hand evidence more reliable than second-hand evidence?
First-hand evidence is evidence that comes from someone that witnessed/was apart of whatever the situation is. For example, if there was a fire in a building, and you were trying to figure out what caused it, you would interview those who were in the building around the time of the fire. That would be first-hand evidence. Second-hand evidence would be people who were outside at the time of the fire, or people who were not directly witnessing the event. It is more reliable because the people were right there, and have a personal account of what happened.

Is it possible to learn to be ambidextrous?
It's possible but very difficult as it's a natural gene. When humans first originated, reaction times were very important if a predator were to sneak up on them. Because of this, humans naturally have a stronger hand hand so they can react faster, whether it be left or right. This allowed humans to swing at the predator faster and stronger without choosing which hand to use. So technically yes, you can, but you will need to exercise it and use your other hand as much as you use your dominant hand.
