Question:
The height, in feet, of a tomato, t seconds after it is dropped from a 200-ft balcony, is s = f(t) = −16t2 + 200.
(a) Find the average velocity between t = 2 and t = 3.
(b) Find the average velocity between t = 2 and t = 2 + ℎ if:
(i) ℎ = 0.1,
(ii) ℎ = 0.01,
(iii) ℎ = 0.001.
(c) Use your answers to part (b) to estimate the instantaneous velocity at t = 2.
(d) What is f(2) and what is an estimated value for f'(2)?
