In Exercises, use the position function s(t) = 16t + 500, which gives the height (in feet)

In Exercises, use the position function s(t) = 16t² + 500, which gives the height (in feet) of an object that has fallen for t seconds from a height of 500 feet. The velocity at time t = a seconds is given by
