A turtle ambles leisurely, as turtles tend to do, when it moves from a location with position vector r1x = 1.13 m and r1.y = -2.81 m in a lettuce garden to another location, with position vector r2x = 3.65 m and r2y = -4.51 m, where the lettuce appears to be tastier (but really is not; this turtle cannot see very well). The excursion takes 3.10 x 102 s to complete. What are the components and the magnitude of the turtle's average velocity in meters per second? m/s Vay,x = m/s Vav,y = m/s
