Purpose. The purpose of this lab is to perform a calculation repetitively within a loop. The loop may be either a while loop or a for loop. You are to write a program that calculates the distance a vehicle has traveled in a certain number of hours. Write a program called vehicleTrip.cpp to calculate the distance traveled for a given speed. Requirements. 1. Using the following formula: distance rate * time = calculate how many miles a vehicle has travelled in a certain number of hours.

Question
Distance Traveled, v 1.0
Purpose. The purpose of this lab is to perform a calculation repetitively within a loop. The loop
may be either a while loop or a for loop.
You are to write a program that calculates the distance a vehicle has traveled in a certain number
of hours.
Write a program called vehicle Trip.cpp to calculate the distance traveled for a given speed.
Requirements.
1. Using the following formula:
distance rate * time
=
calculate how many miles a vehicle has travelled in a certain number of hours.
2. Have the program ask the use for the speed of the vehicle (in miles per hour) and how many
hours the vehicle has traveled. Do not accept a negative number for the speed of the vehicle, and
do not accept a value less than 1 for hours the vehicle has traveled.
3. The program should use a loop to display the distance the vehicle has travelled for each hour
of the time period that has been inputted.
Program I/O.
Input: Speed of the vehicle (in miles per hour), and Number of hours the vehicle has traveled.
The input values are shown colored in blue (the program you write does not need to use blue
coloring for console input).
Output: a table like format that looks similar to this:
What is the speed of the vehicle in mph? 40
How many hours has it traveled? 3
Hours
Distance Traveled
1
2
3
40
80
120

Follow-up Question

The program should only use one loop, not two. It can be either a while loop or a for loop, but should one loop.

Follow-up Question

The program doesn't work properly. if we  input 40 for the first question (What is the speed of the vehicle in mph?)  and 3 for the second ( How many hours has it traveled?). The ouput should be something 1 40 , which is not. 
                                                                     2 80
                                                                    3 120
