Explanation:
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.
Distance is not defined as the actual path but the length of the whole path. Distance is not as such the property of start and end point but of the path. The fact that there can be infinite distinct paths between two points means that distance cannot be defined just by them.
Scalar quantity can be defined as something with only magnitude.
Distance only requires magnitude and not direction.
A speed with direction is called Velocity.
Velocity is a vector quantity.
