SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on calculating distance and velocity under constant acceleration, specifically with an acceleration of 11 m/s². After 6 seconds, the velocity is confirmed to be 66 m/s, and the distance traveled is calculated using the formula d = (1/2)at², resulting in 198 meters. The participants clarify that displacement is equivalent to distance in this context and emphasize the importance of using the correct formulas for such calculations.
