Sure. As one car goes around a circle and as it completes one full rotation, then distance covered by the car is the circumference of the circle. But the displacement is Zero.
So distance but no displacement.
when the body moves circularly from a point 'A' to a then the displacement will be zero(displacement is the shortest diatance from the initial point to final point) and the distance will not be zero.
yes,displacement is the shortest distance covered by a body,so distance covered by a body may be greater than the displacement.
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/An_object_has_moved_though_a_distance_can_it_have_zero_displacement_it_yes_support_your_answer_with_an_example" Yes If a body travel a distance S from X to Y and return to X then distance travelled is 2S but displacement is zero In a uniform circular motion, the distance travelled by a body in one revolution is 2Ï€r but displacement is zero
Distance is equal to magnitude of displacement when the motion is in a straight line.
"Distance" covered is always greater than the magnitude of the displacement,unless the motion is in a straight line. In that case, distance and displacementare equal. Distance is never less than displacement.

Yes distance will be equal or more than the magnitude of displacement. Distance cannot be less than the magnitude of displacement in any way. For example if a body goes around a circle completing one full round then distance covered will be the circumference ie 2pi r But displacement is zero. As the starting and stopping point are one and the same, the distance between initial and final is zero.
yes of course..
"Distance" covered is always greater than the magnitude of the displacement,unless the motion is in a straight line. In that case, distance and displacementare equal. Distance is never less than displacement.

Displacement is a value predicated on the shortest distance between an initial and final position. If a "body" moves a certain distance and returns to its original origin it has not technically traveled any distance based on this definition. The displacement will therefore be zero
In case of feely falling body
Look distance is the total length covered by a body and displacement is the shortest length covered by a body. Also displacement is a vector quantity (has both magnitude and direction) and distance is a scalar quantity (has only magnitude and no direction)
