An object is dropped from rest at a height of 350 feet on a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is -60 ft./s.?. Find the average velocity of the object during the first 3 seconds, and then use the Mean Value Theorem to find the time at which the instantaneous velocity equals the average velocity.

A driver of a car stopped at a gas station to fill up his gas tank. He looked at his watch, and the time read exactly 3:40 p.m. At this time, he started pumping gas into the tank. At exactly 3:44, the tank was full and he noticed that he had pumped 10.7 gallons. What is the average rate of flow of the gasoline into the gas tank?
