Distance is a scalarwithout direction and displacement is a vector with distance and direction.
Displacement consists of distance and direction.
By definition, it would have the same speed and direction as the compared object. This can be evidenced by the two objects having an unchanging spatial relationship: i.e. the objects remain the same direction and distance from each other.
displacement
Because distance can be measured in any direction. For example, if I throw a ball -- it could travel a distance of 16 feet (5 metres). The direction I throw it depends which way I'm facing !

he does or else they wouldnt be one direction

displacement
Speed is distance/time or distance per unit of time. It is velocity that is distance/time in a given direction. Velocity can be said to be speed in a certain direction.
A vector is like an arrow. It points in the relevant direction and its length is a measure of the distance.

In physics, distance is the unit which only has magnitude and not the directions.Hence,the term used for the measurement of distance and direction together is known as displacement.Distance is a scalar quantity.Distance + direction =Displacement .It is a vector quantity.
A scalar has distance but no direction. A vector has distance and direction. "12 feet up" has distance (12 feet) and direction (up), so is a vector.
A vector is like an arrow. The length of the vector represents the magnitude (distance, speed, whatever) while the direction is shown by the direction of the arrow.A vector is like an arrow.

Boring doesnt have direction but directional boring have direction
