Answer:

40,000 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find how far the car travels, or the distance. Therefore, we can use the following formula:


d= s*t

where
s is the speed and
t is the time

The speed of the car is 40 meters per second and the time is 1000 seconds. Therefore,


s= 40 m/s*\\t=1000s

Substitute the values into the formula.


d= 40 m/s * 1000s

Multiply. When you multiply, the 2 "s" variables will cancel out.


d= (40 m*1000)


d= 40,000 m

The distance traveled by the car is 40,000 meters.
