Answer 1

To calculate the distance covered by an object traveling at a consistent velocity, you can use the formula:

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

Given that the velocity is 20 m/s and the time is 4 seconds:

\[ \text{Distance} = 20 \, \text{m/s} \times 4 \, \text{s} = 80 \, \text{m} \]

So the correct response is:

**80 m**
