I'm having trouble completing the problem I've attached a picture of below. I was able to find the the Earth's average speed in m/s relative to the sun by doing (2pi*(1.49x10^11))/31536000. But I am struggling to find the average velocity for the same thing over a period of one year in m/s. I was wondering how to calculate that? I've tried doing the (final velocity-initial velocity)/2 but the program doesn't accept my answer when using that approach.
