Displacement is denoted by?

Which is true?
Speed is measured in m/s but velocity is measured in s/m
Speed is a vector and velocity is a scalar
Speed and velocity are the same exact thing
Speed is like velocity but without a direction
What is a difference between distance and displacement
Distance is measured in seconds and displacement is measured in meters
Distance is always shorter than displacement
Displacement can be equal to zero if the object ends in the place it began in
Distance can be equal to infinite when only a small distance has been travelled

Speed
A wrong answer
Which of the following is correct?
Initial Position = 0 m
Final Position = 6 m
Distance = 6 m
Displacement = 6 m
Initial Position = 6 m
Final Position = 0 m
Distance = 6 m
Displacement = 6 m
Initial Position = 6 m
Final Position = 6 m
Distance = 6 m
Displacement = 6 m
Initial Position = 0 m
Final Position = 6 m
Distance = 0 m
Displacement = 6 m
