Physical Quantities scalars and vectors: Distance and displacement

The video tutorial explains the difference between distance and displacement using a practical example. A person moves in a path covering 30 meters north, 60 meters east, and 30 meters south, totaling 120 meters in 60 seconds. The displacement is the direct line from start to end, measuring 60 meters east. The average velocity is calculated as 1 meter per second eastward.
