Answer:

Displacement is the word we use for the distance covered so in this case when a car travels 20 meters east in 1 second, at the end of that 1-second interval a car travels a distance of 20 meters.

And the distance covered is the displacement, so it means that displacement of the car after 1 second is 20 meters east.
