Explanation:

Step1: Recall speed formula

Speed is calculated as distance divided by time, so the formula is \( \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \).

Step2: Substitute values

Here, distance is 140 feet and time is 4 seconds. Substitute into the formula: \( \text{Speed} = \frac{140}{4} \).

Step3: Calculate the division

\( \frac{140}{4} = 35 \).

Answer:

B. 35
