To determine the distance traveled by the object in the next 10 seconds, we need to find the average velocity during this time period and then multiply it by the time.
Given that the object's initial velocity is zero (it starts from rest), and its velocity after 5 seconds is 20 m/s, we can calculate the average velocity.
Average velocity = (initial velocity + final velocity) / 2
Average velocity = (0 + 20) / 2 = 10 m/s
Now, we can calculate the distance traveled using the formula:
Distance = Average velocity * Time
Distance = 10 m/s * 10 s = 100 meters
Therefore, the object will travel a distance of 100 meters in the next 10 seconds.
