A projectile with mass 6 kg is fired from a catapult at an enemy's castle. The position of the projectile's location is recorded at six different times. All distances have been measured in
meters.
1 =< 27, 171.5, 0> m at t = 1s,
2 = 71, 205,0 > m at t = 2s,
3 =< 159, 239,0> m at t = 4s,
4 =< 247, 229,0> m at t = 6s,
5 =< 335, 175,0> m at t = 8s,
6 =< 379, 131.5,0> mat t=
- 9s.
(a) Calculate the average velocity at positions 1, 2, and 3.
