Answer: the scientist measure the eagle's instantaneous speed

Step-by-step explanation:

80 km/hr was the eagle's instantaneous speed, measured in an instant by the scientist. 50 km/hr is the eagle's average speed, measured over a certain period of time. The eagle's speed was less than 50 km/hr at times and greater than 50 km/hr at times, during the elapsed time period of measurement
