Michael generated the depicted graph for his laboratory report, detailing the motion of an object he observed over an 8.0-second period. His findings indicate that the object maintained a consistent velocity. Subsequently, Michael opted to calculate the distance the object had covered after 10 seconds.

8 meters
12 meters
14 meters
10 meters

We cannot determine the distance the object covered after 10 seconds based solely on the information given. The graph only shows the object's motion over an 8-second period and does not provide any information beyond that time frame.
