Calculus 1
Section 1.4

I have not studied the derivative so far in the textbook.

Questions:

1. What is instantaneous velocity?

2. Can you provide a graphical interpretation of the instantaneous velocity?
 
Instantaneous velocity is the velocity of an object in motion at a specific point in time. This is determined similarly to average velocity, but we narrow the period of time so that it approaches zero. If an object has a standard velocity over a period of time, its average and instantaneous velocities may be the same.

I will look into this some more.
