a) what is the distance covered by the car :
Distance is the total path covered by the object.hence distance travelled=100+25=125m
b)what is its displacement?
Displacement is the shortest path between source and destination.Car moves 100m forward(east) and then 25m backward(west)so displacement =100-25=75m
