To determine the displacement of an object, you only have to consider the change in position between the starting point and the ending point. The path followed from one point to the other does not matter.

(B) describe and analyze motion in one dimension using equations with the concepts of distance, displacement, speed, average velocity, instantaneous velocity, and acceleration; (F) identify and describe motion relative to different frames of reference.
It refers to the numerical measurement of how far an object is from a particular place. Also, in physics, it may refer to the physical length or evaluation based on some criteria. Furthermore, a distance from X to Y is exchangeable with distance from Y to X.
The Cambridge Handbook of Physics Formulas comprehensively covers the major topics explored in undergraduate physics courses. It is designed to be a compact, portable, reference book suitable for everyday work, problem solving, or exam revision.
1.16 The Distance Formula. If you want to find the distance between two objects in the real world, you measure the distance with a ruler (unless you are an astrophysicist and the distances are too large or you are a particle physicist and the distances are too small!).
Section 3.12 The Distance Formula. If you want to find the distance between two objects in the real world, you measure the distance with a ruler (unless you are an astrophysicist and the distances are too large or you are a particle physicist and the distances are too small!).
