A Magellanic penguin is at an initial position of 4 m and waddles to a position of 8 m in 8 s. What is the penguin’s average velocity?

His average velocity would be 0.5m per second. The way you would find this is using the formula for velocity: x/t meaning displacement over time. Then you would plug in the numbers, 4m/8s, and then simplify: 0.5m/s.
