To make a displacement can, you can use a can or container that is transparent or semi-transparent. Fill the can with water, and slowly submerge an object in the water. The difference in water level before and after submerging the object will show the displacement volume, which is equal to the volume of the object.

To calculate velocity, you need the displacement of an object (the change in position) and the time it took to make that displacement. Velocity is determined by dividing the displacement by the time taken to achieve that displacement.
Velocity is calculated by dividing the displacement of an object by the time taken to cover that displacement. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. The formula is: velocity = displacement / time.
8m in the same direction.
Displacement vector in the same direction = 3 m + 5 m = 8 m.
The combined displacement vector will have a magnitude of 8m. This is found by simply adding the magnitudes of the two original displacement vectors together (3m + 5m = 8m), since they are in the same direction.
