When can a body have same distance and same displacement?
Distance is equal to magnitude of displacement when the motion is in a straight line.
Is there any example of motion where distance and displacement are same?
no
In which circumstances is displacement is the same as distance traveled?
When the motion is in a straight line.
Is there any example for motion which will have same distance and displacement?
Sure. If the motion is all in a straight line, then the distance and displacement are equal. ==> The Olympic 100-meter sprint is in a straight line. Distance = Displacement = 100 meters. If the direction of motion ever changes, then the distance and displacement are not equal. (I think if the direction of motion ever changes, then the distance has to be greater than the displacement.) ==> In the Indianapolis 500, Distance = 500 miles, Displacement = Zero, because the Starting line and Finish line are in the same place, so the car finishes at the same place he started at.
Is it true that if motion starts and stops at the same location then the distance is zero?

Is motion the same thing as acceleration?
No.

Are diameter and distance the same thing?

If motion starts and stops at the same location then the distance at zero is that true?

Can distance be the same as displacement?
Yes. It always is when the motion is all in a straight line.
What occurs when force is applied over a certain distance and motion is in the same direction as the force?
There is exergy. Energy is given out by the motion.
What is a motion to adjudicate?
A motion to adjudicate is the same thing as a request to be judged. This is just a fancy way of saying that.
