The command you are looking for is: "Calculate the speed of the hockey puck."

This indicates that you need to perform a calculation to find the speed based on the distance the puck traveled and the time it took to travel that distance.

To calculate the speed, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}
\]

**Distance:**
- The distance between the blue lines is \( 17 \frac{2}{3} \) m, which can be converted to an improper fraction:
\[
17 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{53}{3} \text{ m}
\]

**Time:**
- The puck was struck at 2:35 and stopped at 2:32, which is a duration of \( 2 \text{ minutes} - 32 \text{ seconds} = 3 \text{ seconds} \) or \( 3 \text{ seconds} \).

Now we can plug in the values:

\[
\text{Speed} = \frac{\frac{53}{3} \text{ m}}{3 \text{ s}} = \frac{53}{3} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{53}{9} \text{ m/s} \approx 5.89 \text{ m/s}
\]

So the speed of the hockey puck is approximately **5.89 m/s**.
