A bird flies from the South Pole to the North Pole. Part of the journey is 1000 miles that takes 2 weeks. What is the bird’s velocity in that time? Show work for credit and include final units.
Two weeks is [tex]2 weeks \times \frac{7 days}{1 week}\times \frac{24 hours}{1day}=336hours [/tex] Then the speed is [tex] \frac{1000miles}{336hours}=2.97 \frac{miles}{hour} [/tex]
