Answer 1

To calculate the distance traveled by the horse-drawn carriage, we can use the formula:

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

Given:
- Speed (v) = 4.9 m/s
- Time (t) = 32 s

Now, substituting the values into the formula:

\[
\text{Distance} = 4.9 \, \text{m/s} \times 32 \, \text{s}
\]

\[
\text{Distance} = 156.8 \, \text{m}
\]

So, the carriage will move **156.8 m** over 32 seconds. The correct response is:

**156.8 m**
