Final answer:
The distance traveled by an object that moves with an average speed of 6 meters per second for 8 seconds is 48 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance traveled by an object that moves with an average speed of 6 meters per second for 8 seconds can be calculated by multiplying the speed by the time:
Distance = Speed x Time
In this case, the distance is equal to:
Distance = 6 m/s x 8 s = 48 meters
Therefore, an object moving with an average speed of 6 meters per second for 8 seconds would cover a distance of 48 meters during that time interval.
Therefore, the correct answer is (a) 48 meters.
