No. Displacement is how far an object is from its original position. This means that if an object traveled in a circle and returned to its original point, it will have a displacement of 0 while the distance will be whatever the circumference of the circle was. Hope that helps.
Displacement can be equal to distance traveled or less, depending on the shape of the route, but it can never be greater than the distance traveled.
In case of feely falling body
-- Distance is a scalar quantity, whereas displacement is a vector. -- Distance is the integral of magnitude of displacement. -- Magnitude of displacement is always less than or equal to distance. -- The two quantities are equal when the motion is in a straight line.
yes.
Not possible. The displacement could be equal to the distance traveled ... if the route of travel was a straight line ... or less than the distance traveled ... if the route of travel was wavy and wiggly. But you can never wind up farther from your starting point than the distance you travel.
displacement is equal to the distance you traveled when the object is moving at shortest path
Distance traveled is equal to the magnitude of the displacement vector when the motion is in a straight line.
The magnitude of displacement is equal to distance traveled when motion is in a straight line.

It means your trip was all in a straight line, and you never backtracked.
That depends on what distance you are measuring.
