Question

Here are the positions at three different times for a bee in flight(a bee's top speed is about 7 m/s).

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) see attachment below

(b) see attachment below

(c) the average velocity in part (a) is a better estimate than that in part (b) because it was calculated for a shorter time interval compared to part (b). The basically definition of instantaneous velocity is that it is the limit of the average velocity as the time interview approaches zero (that is as the time interview becomes smaller and smaller). In other words the shorter the time interview the better the accuracy of the result.

(d) see attachment below.
