Hey there!! :)

Here is your answer:

  • Distance: The actual path followed by the body between two points is called distance.
  • The SI unit of distance is m (metre).
  • Distance is a scalar quantity.

  • Displacement: The shortest path between two points in a specific direction is called displacement.
  • The SI unit of displacement is same as distance i.e., metre (m).
  • Displacement is a vector quantity.

  • Velocity: The ratio of displacement of an object to the time taken is known as velocity of the object.
  • The SI unit of velocity is m/s.
  • It is a vector and derived quantity.

  • Acceleration: The increase in speed with respect to time is called acceleration.
  • It is also defined as the rate of change of velocity.
  • The SI unit of acceleration is m/s^2.
  • It is a vector and derived quantity.

Hope this helps!! ~~
