Suppose the height of an object fired straight up from the level ground is given by s(t)=300t-4.9t where s is measured in meters and t is measured in seconds. how fast is the object moving up as it leaves the ground after 2 seconds? find the average velocity on the interval [1,3]. How low will it take to hit the ground? What is the velocity when it hits the ground?

Thank you so much :)

You need to show some work on what you've posted. Otherwise, the math tutors will think you just want to copy the answers down.
not sure about calculus, but physics will solve this

4.9t should be 4.9 t^2 (free-fall equation)

gravitational acceleration (downward) is 9.8 m/s^2

300 is the launch velocity in m/s

A) after 2 s ... 300 - (2 * 9.8)

B) acceleration is uniform , so same as A)

C) time up equals time down
... 2 (300 / 9.8)

D) impact velocity equals launch velocity
