Answer 2

$\bigstar\:\underline{\boxed{\bf{\orange{Distance:}}}}$

• Distance is defined as the actual length of path which is covered by moving object.
• It is a scalar quantity
• It has only magnitude
• It can't be negative or zero.
• SI unit : m

$\bigstar\:\underline{\boxed{\bf{\purple{Displacement:}}}}$

• Displacement is defined as the shortest distance b/w initial and final position of entire journey.
• It is a vector quantity
• It has both magnitude as well as direction.
• It can be positive, negative or zero.
• SI unit : m

$\dag\:\underline{\boxed{\bf{\green{Distance\geqslant Displacement}}}}$
