A bird is flying south for the winter and flies a total of 8,000 miles in 4 days. What is the velocity of the bird?
8000mi/4days = 2000 mi/day
8,000 miles + 4 days
To find the velocity of the bird, we need to divide the total distance traveled by the time it took to cover that distance.
Velocity = Distance / Time
In this case, the bird flew a total distance of 8,000 miles in 4 days. So, we divide 8,000 by 4 to get the velocity.
Velocity = 8,000 miles / 4 days
Simplifying the equation, we get:
Velocity = 2,000 miles/day
Therefore, the velocity of the bird is 2,000 miles per day.
