Weddell seals foraging in open water dive toward the ocean bottom by swimming forward in a straight-line path tipped below the horizontal. The tracking data for one seal showed it taking 4.0 min to descend 360 m below the surface while moving 920 m horizontally.

1) What distance did the seal cover in making this dive?

2) What was the seal's speed, in m/s?
