Answer:
Distance covered = 16 kilometers
Displacement = 0 kilometers
Explanation:
Distance is defined as the total path length covered and it cannot be zero for a moving object.
Displacement is defined as the distance between the initial and final positions and it may or may not be zero for a moving object.
Here Sophee returns to her house and thus her displacement is zero.
She walks 3 kilometers north , 5 kilometers east , 3 kilometers south and then 5 kilometers west .
So the total distance covered = 3 + 5 + 3 + 5 =16 kilometers.
So the distance travelled by her is 16 kilometers and the displacement is 0 kilometers.
