Step-by-step explanation:
A Displacement – Distance graph shows the position of each particle in a wave relative to its distance from a reference point. The distance between two (2) successive crest or trough is the wavelength. The maximum displacement of the particles from the equilibrium position (displacement = 0) is the amplitude.

A displacement-time graph is able to show if an object is going backwards or forwards. Usually, a line with a negative gradient would indicate motion going backwards. This cannot be shown on a distance-time graph.
