Distance :-
The complete length of any path covered by an object is called distance, it has two end points.
Distance is a scalar quantity, it has only magnitude.
The formula of distance is speed multiplied by time.
Distance is always positive, the answer can never have any negative values.
Distance can be measured in both straight and non straight path.
Displacement :-
The complete length of a minimum path covered by an object is called displacement.
Displacement is a vector quantity, it has both magnitude and direction.
The formula of distance is velocity multiplied by time.
Displacement can be positive, negative and also can be zero.
Displacement can only be measured along a straight path.
