This question has 2 parts, in part A you will write a function and part B need to implement the function

 

Part A - Write a function called getDistance.  This function will have 2 parameters: first is the speed of the object in miles per hour the second is time traveled in hours.  The function will return the distance traveld by multiplying the speed by the time passed by parameter.  

 

Part B will be a small program that will input the speed and time traveled by 2 vehicles.  It will then print which vehicle traveld the furthest and must utilize the function written in part A appropriately. 

 

Complete the starter file below (copy and paste into your answer).

 

 

#write your function here

 

def main():

    vehicle1_speed = int(input("Enter the speed of vehicle 1: "))
    vehicle1_time = int(input("Enter the time vehicle 1 has traveled: "))

 

    vehicle2_speed = int(input("Enter the speed of vehicle 2: "))
    vehicle2_time = int(input("Enter the time vehicle 2 has traveled: "))

 

    #complete the program here for the desired output
