    the distance traveled by the fish is 3648 m

    Explanation:

    In general, animals have a small period of acceleration, which we will despise after which they travel at a constant speed so we can use the kinematic equations in uniform motion

    We reduce the units to System SI

    t = 2 min (60s / 1 min) = 120 s

    Calculate

    V = x / t

    x = V t

    x = 30.4 120

    x = 3648 m

    This is the distance traveled by the fish
