Why is the following situation impossible? A shopper pushing a cart through a market follows directions to the canned goods and moves through a displacement 8.00i^m down one aisle. He then makes a 90.0 degree turn and moves 3.00m along the y axis. He then makes another 90.0 degree turn and moves 4.00m along the x axis. Every shopper who follows these directions correctly ends up 5.00m from the starting point.
