Answer:
Displacement is defined as the change in position of an object. It is a vector quantity and has a direction and magnitude. ... For example- If an object moves from A position to B, then the object's position changes. This change in position of an object is known as Displacement.
The distance of an object can be defined as the complete path travelled by an object. E.g.: if a car travels east for 5 km and takes a turn to travel north for another 8 km, the total distance travelled by car shall be 13 km.
