A squirrel falls from a very tall tree. Initially at t=  0), the squirrel is at the top of the tree, a distance y  50 m above the ground. At t = 1.0 s, the squirrel is at y  45 m, and at t = 2.0 s, it is at y  30 m. Estimate the average velocity of the squirrel during the intervals from t=  0.0 s to t  =1.0 s and from t=  1.0 s to t  =2.0 s. Use these results to estimate the average acceleration of the squirrel during this time.
