The following table gives values for the velocity of an object in meters per minute
t
0 v(t) 9
1 2 3 4 -3 9 45 105
Include units in your answers to the following
(a) Use the Trapezoid Rule with 4 rectangles to approximate the total distance traveled by the object over the first four minutes.
(b) Use a right-hand sum with 4 rectangles to approximate the average velocity of the object over the first four minutes.
(c) Approximate the average acceleration over the first four minutes
(d) If the average acceleration between 4 and 6 minutes is -5 meters/min2, what is the velocity of the object at 6 minutes?
(e) Use a left-hand sum with 4 rectangles to approximate how far away the object is from its starting point after 4 minutes.
(f) Suppose the object moves at constant velocity of c meter/min after 4 minutes. If the object returns to its starting position at 7 minutes, use your answer to the previous part to estimate the value of c.
