Question: A projectile is fired vertically upward and has a position given by s ( t ) = - 1 6 t 2 2 8 8

A projectile is fired vertically upward and has a position given by s(t)=-16t2288t304 for 0 sts 19. Complete parts (a)-(e) below.
b. From the graph of the position function, identify the time at which the projectile has an instantaneous velocity of zero; call this time t=a.
t=9(Type an integer or a declmal.)
c. Confirm your answer to part (b) by making a table of average velocities to approximate the instantaneous velocity at t=a. Complete the table belon:
\table[[Interval,Slope of secant line],[a,a0.5,,],[a,a0.1,,],[a,a0.01,,],[a,a0.001,,],[a,a0.0001,,]]
(Type integers or decimals. Do not round until the final answer. Then round to four decimal places as needed.)
