**Question 12:** How far have you traveled after going a constant 5.06 m/s for 8.70 seconds?

*Explanation:* To find the distance traveled at a constant speed, use the formula: 

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

Given:
- Speed = 5.06 meters per second
- Time = 8.70 seconds

Substitute these values into the formula to calculate the total distance.
