Answer:
5 km North
Explanation:
Displacement refers to the distance covered in a specific direction.
In this case,
Distance covered due north = 8 km
Distance covered due south = 3 km
Therefore;
If we take the distance towards north to be +8 km
The distance towards south to be - 3 km
Then;
Displacement = +8km + (-3km)
= + 5km
= 5 km North
Therefore;
The displacement is 5km towards North.
