What is the shutter speed for different scene selections on a camera?

Question by Olivia: What is the shutter speed for different scene selections on a camera?
I have a Sanyo Xacti VCP-CG20, a camera which I find is a really nice camera to use.
I am curious as to what the shutter speed is for each of the scene selections it has, for a AP photo class I am taking we need to be able to use our fastest shutter speed and slowest shutter speed and I know that the fastest shutter speed is 1/500 and slowest is 1/2, but which scene select is which I don’t know.

The fastest will usually be on the sport/action setting and the slowest will either be on night/dark or landscape where a large depth of field (small aperture+slow shutter speed) is needed.

If you get one of the photos in a photo editor see if there’s any EXIF information. This gives the shutter, aperture, ISO, lens focal length and other info.
