At 3:00 P.M., a bank robber is spotted driving north on I-15 at milepost 100. His speed is 146.0 mi/h. At 3:37 P.M., he is spotted at milepost 185 doing 104.0 mi/h. (Assume a straight highway). Assume north to be positive. What is the bank robber’s displacement during this time interval? .What is his average velocity during this time interval? What is his average acceleration during this time interval?
