A 'displacement' always consists of a magnitude and a direction. The two cars you just described have displacements with the same magnitude ... 5 km. But if they didn't both drive in the same direction, then their displacements are different.
Remember:
-- 10 m/s² up and 10 m/s² down are different accelerations
-- 30 mph East and 30 mph West are the same speed but different velocity.
-- 5 km North and 5 km South are the same distance but different displacement.
If the object, ends up with a positive charge, then it is missing electrons. if it is missing electrons, then it must have been removed form the object during the rubbing process.

Since initial velocity is zero hence , u = 0
=> d = 1/2 * a * t2

on solving we get
d = 86.436 metres
Note ; Here Gravitational Acceleration is take as , g = 9.8 m/s2
