===Meaning===
[[File:DisplacementDistance.png|right|300px|thumb|This [[diagram]] shows the difference between [[displacement]] and [[distance]].]]
[[Displacement]] is a [[vector]] quantity describing the distance and direction from one point to another.

===About Displacement===
: [[Displacement]] is a [[vector]] because it has [[magnitude]] and direction.
: The [[SI Unit]] for the [[magnitude]] of [[displacement]] is the [[metre]].
: [[Displacement]] is usually described from a point of origin to a new location.
: [[Displacement]] is different from it's [[scalar]] counterpart '[[distance]]' which describes the length of the journey, while [[displacement]] ignores the journey and looks only at the start and end points.

		+	==Key Stage 5==
		+	===Meaning===
		+	[[Displacement]] is the [[distance]] moved in a specific direction from a reference point.
		+
		+	===About Displacement===
		+	*'''Displacement''' is a [[vector]] quantity, having both [[magnitude]] and direction.
		+	*'''Displacement''' is different from [[distance]], which is a [[scalar]] quantity and only considers the magnitude.
		+	*'''Displacement''' is used in [[kinematics]] to describe the change in position of an [[object]].
		+	*'''Displacement''' is important in understanding motion, as it provides information about the direction of travel.
		+	*'''Displacement''' can be positive or negative depending on the chosen reference direction.
