Distance Calculator

If you know a vehicle’s speed and the amount of time it has traveled, you can calculate the distance it has traveled as follows:

  Distance = Speed × Time

For example, if a train travels 40 miles per hour for 3 hours, the distance traveled is 120 miles. Create an application with a form similar to the one shown in Figure 5-51. The user enters a vehicle’s speed and the number of hours traveled into text boxes. When the user clicks the Calculate button, the application should use a loop to display in a list box the distance the vehicle has traveled for each hour of that time period.
