A projectile is fired vertically upward into the air, its position (in feet) above the ground after t seconds is given by the function s(t) shown below. Use limits to determine the instantaneous velocity of the projectile at t= a seconds for the given value of a. s(t) = - 16t + 36t; a = 1 The instantaneous velocity at t = 1 is
