Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Declares the document type and version of HTML -->
<html><!-- Begins the HTML document -->
<head><!-- Contains metadata about the document -->
<meta charset="utf-8"><!-- Specifies the character encoding of the document -->
<title>How to specify the width of the object</title><!-- Sets the title of the document -->
</head><!-- Ends the head section -->
<body><!-- Contains the content of the document -->
Object Width <!-- Displays text indicating the width of the object -->
<object data="https://www.w3resource.com/html-css-exercise/basic/solution/php-demo1.mp4" width="400" height="400"><!-- Defines an embedded object with a specified data source (URL of a video file) and dimensions -->
</object><!-- Ends the object element -->
</body><!-- Ends the body section -->
</html><!-- Ends the HTML document -->

Explanation:

The HTML document starts with a declaration of its type and version (<!DOCTYPE html>).
The <html> element encloses the entire HTML document.
The <head> section contains metadata about the document, such as character encoding and title.
The <meta charset="utf-8"> tag specifies the character encoding of the document as UTF-8.
The <title> tag sets the title of the document.
Inside the <body> section, the text "Object Width" is displayed, indicating the width of the object.
An <object> element is used to define an embedded object with a specified data source (URL of a video file) and dimensions (width="400" height="400").
The HTML document is properly closed with the </html> tag.
