2. Distance Traveled 

The distance a vehicle travels can be calculated as follows: 

Distance = Speed * Time 

For example, if a train travels 40 miles-per-hour for three hours, the distance traveled is 120 miles. Write a program that asks

for the speed of a vehicle (in miles-per-hour) and the number of hours it has traveled. It should use a loop to display the distance a vehicle has traveled for each hour of a time period specified by the user. For example, if a vehicle is traveling at 40 mph for a three-hour time period, it should display a report similar to the one that follows: 

Hour     Distance Traveled  

----     ------------ 

 1            40 

 2            80 

 3            120

Input Validation: Do not accept a negative number for speed and do not accept any value less than 1 for time traveled.
