?Velocity of a skydiver Assume the graph on the next page represents the distance (in m)

Chapter 7, Problem 219

(choose chapter or problem)

Velocity of a skydiver Assume the graph on the next page represents the distance (in m) fallen by a skydiver t seconds after jumping out of a plane.

a. Estimate the velocity of the skydiver at t = 15 s.

b. Estimate the velocity of the skydiver at t = 70 s.

c. Estimate the average velocity of the skydiver between t = 20 s and t = 90 s.

d. Sketch a graph of the velocity function for \(0 \leq t \leq 120\).

e. What significant event do you think occurred at t = 30?
