Given:

Time: 3.5 hrs

Velocity: 120 miles/hr

Now Distance=  Speed × Time

Now Velocity and speed have the same magnitude. Velocity being a vector quantity has a definite direction. Whereas speed is a scalar quantity,it indicates only the magnitude an doesn't define any direction.

Hence Distance = Velocity x time

Distance = 3.5 × 120 = 420 miles
