The following table gives the position $s\left(t\right)$ of an object moving along a line at time $t$. Determine the average velocities over the time intervals $\left\lbrack1,1.01\right\rbrack$, $\left\lbrack1,1.001\right\rbrack$, and $\left\lbrack1,1.0001^{}\right.]$. Then make a conjecture about the value of the instantaneous velocity at $t=1$. <IMAGE>
