If a tern travels 3.20 x 10^4 km south in 122 days, what is its average velocity in kilometers per day?
To find the average velocity of the tern, we can divide the total distance traveled by the total time it took.
The total distance traveled by the tern is given as 3.20 x 10^4 km.
The total time it took for the tern to travel this distance is given as 122 days.
To calculate the average velocity, we can use the formula:
Average Velocity = Total Distance / Total Time
So, we can substitute the values into the formula:
Average Velocity = (3.20 x 10^4 km) / (122 days)
To simplify this, we divide 3.20 x 10^4 by 122:
Average Velocity = 2.62 x 10^2 km/day
Therefore, the average velocity of the tern is 2.62 x 10^2 kilometers per day.
