DISTANCE IS THE ACTUAL LENGTH OF THE PATH TRAVELLED BY A MOVING BODY IRRESPECTIVE OF THE DIRECTION IN WHICH THE BODY MOVES.IN SI SYSTEM,UNIT OF DISTANCE IS METER(m).HOWEVER,FOR DISTANCES MORE THAN 1000m,WE USE A BIGGER UNIT CALLED KILOMETER(km).
DISPLACEMENT IS THE SHORTEST DISTANCE BETWEEN INITIAL POSITION(REFERENCE POINT)AND FINAL POSITION IN A SPECIFIED DIRECTION IS CALLED THE DISPLACEMENT.DISPLACEMENT HAS SAME UNITS AS THAT OF DISTANCE.
