Displacement means that how far an object is from its initial position.
We know that displacement is a vector quantity.

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.

Displacement is vector because:

displacement =velocity × time

where velocity is vector,

  • therefore displacement is vector

Distance is scalar because:

Distance= speed × time where speed and time both are scalar ,

  • Therefore distanse is scalar
