β 16y agoThe average sea kayaker can generally cruise at a speed of 2.5-3.5 Knots (Nautical Miles/Hour). 1 Nautical mile is 1.8 kilometers, or 1.2 imperial miles. Assuming a paddling time of 8-10 hours a day, one could concievably travel 20-35 nm.
Realisticly, paddling time, and distance is often much lower. There are a host of factors that hinder mobility. From wind, currents, fatigue, group goals and moral. I have led close to 300 days of multi-day expeditions, and will cover, remembering we are checking out the sights (eco-tourism after all), between 8-15 nm/day (4-6 hours of paddling/day).
The crossing between the Canadain arctic islands to greenland, from the point at 66'39"00'''N (approx), to the nearest shore of Greenland is about 175 nautical miles (315km / 210 land miles). Further north, the crossing narrows to a more concievable 15-40 nm, however at that point you are at about 78 degrees north.
Is this trip adviseable, or possible? Depends on logistics. The northern crossing, from the tip of Ellesmere Is. to Greenland, could be accomplished after ice break-up. The 175nm crossing would be a challange no matter where it was attempted. Any potential group must be suitably equipped, and be filled with extremely talented paddlers.

TRUE
It is not possible to compute the average distance from the information given. Average speed, yes; average distance, no.
When the length of the time is decreased more and more ,average velocity of the particles equals instantaneous velocity.
It is calculated as the total distance travelled divided by the total time taken. It is, of course, possible to go very fast for some of the time and then go slowly and cover the same distance. That is where the concept of average speed comes from.

It is about 12.2 (40 ft).
In the middle of the bridge it is 298 ft deep.
68.3 years. The world average is 67.2 years.
Yes, on average it is (only because Antarctica is not a country).
About 1 new baby per 10 hours on average.
On average, probably Greenland, much of which is covered with ice year-round.
Greenland has a higher elevation than Australia.
Greenland's average summer temperature is around 5°C, although temperatures of 21°C have been recorded in Narsarsuaq in 2006. And in ENGLISH that is 41Fahrenheit and temperatures of up to 69.8Fahrenheit
Greenland's climate is largely influenced by the presence of ice throughout the year. Greenland's summers are mild and bright, whereas, winters are freezing and dark. along the Greenland coast heavy snowfall is observed.
