Heya friend ,

Distance is the total path covered by a body in a unit time.

Let's learn a few points about Distance-

•Distance is a scalar quantity.It only has magnitude, no direction , thats why it's a scalar quantity.
•Distance is always taken positive.
•Distance can never have a magnitude which is less than displacement.
