Answer:

The answer is A) 160 Meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the distance (d) traveled by a body given its speed (S) and the time (t). Use the equation,

S = d / t ; d = S x t

Substituting the known values to the equation,

d = (4 m/s ) x (40 s) = 160 m

Thus, the person will travel 160 meters in 40 seconds.
