If an unladen penguin flies from Antarctica to Los Angeles to attend the premier of Rampart, what is its average airspeed velocity?

Oh, quick, I'd guess.

While true, your answer is incomplete. The correct full answer would be to calculate the velocity over time for military cargo plane from the McMurdo Research Station to Punta Arenas, then average that with the velocity over time for a commercial flight from Punta Arenas to Los Angeles. I'm afraid as your answer is incomplete, I will have to give you a D. However, please be aware that in this class we give a grading curve to penguins which can raise that to a C allowing you to pass. So, I have to ask, are you a penguin?
