Using data from Question 15, calculate the average rate over the interval 0 to 5.0 h. Compare your result with the average rates over the intervals 1.0 to 4.0 h and 2.0 to 3.0 h, all of which have the same midpoint (2.5 h from the start).

Question 15

(a) 0.00 to 0.50 h

(b) 0.50 to 1.0 h

(c) 1.0 to 2.0 h

(d) 2.0 to 3.0 h

(e) 3.0 to 4.0 h

(f ) 4.0 to 5.0 h
