Answer:
Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion. Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.

Distance is the length of the path taken by an object whereas displacement is the simply the distance between where the object started and where it ended up.
