Question

difference between distance and displacement​

Answer 1

DISTANCE IS A SCALAR QUANTITY BUT DISPLACEMENT IS A VECTOR QUANTITY

DISTANCE CANNOT BE ZERO BUT DISPLACEMENT CAN BE ZERO

Answer 2

Distance :

Distance is the length of actual path covered by a body

It can't be negative or zero

It is scalar quantity

Distance = speed × time

Displacement :

Displacement is the shortest distance between final position and initial position

It can be negative or positive or zero

It is vector quantity

Displacement = velocity × time
