To calculate the velocity of an object that enters and exits an ocean, you would need to know the distance traveled by the object and the time it takes to travel that distance. The velocity can be determined using the formula:

Velocity = Distance / Time

Here's how you can use this formula:

  1. Measure the distance covered by the object. For example, if the object enters the ocean at point A and exits at point B, measure the straight-line distance between these two points.

  2. Determine the time it takes for the object to travel from point A to point B. You can use a stopwatch or other timing devices to measure the time accurately.

  3. Plug the values into the velocity formula:

Velocity = Distance / Time

Substitute the measured distance and time into the formula, and perform the calculation to obtain the velocity.

It's important to note that if the object experiences any changes in speed or direction during its journey through the ocean, the velocity calculation may become more complex. In such cases, you would need additional information, such as the object's acceleration or any other relevant data, to determine the velocity accurately.
