If one takes the first path from Gate 1, they need to walk 80m towards east, then 80m towards south, and finally 20m towards west to arrive at Gate 2. The second path is a semi-circle connecting the two gates, where the diameter of the semi-circle is the straight-line distance between the two gates.
A person walking at a constant speed of 5 kilometers/hour enters the park through Gate 1, walks along the first path to reach Gate 2 and then takes the second path to come back to Gate 1.
Which of the following is the CLOSEST to the time the person takes, from entering the park to coming back to Gate 1, if she never stops in between?
