What is distance and displacement?

 \huge \fbox{ \color{blue}{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.

  • Distance is the length of the path travelled by a body in certain interval of time, whereas displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final positions of a body.
  • Distance is a scalar quantity whereas displacement is a vector quantity.
