This may happen when the particle moves back and forth.
The distance travelled by a particle cannot be zero when displacement is not zero because unlike distance which is a scalar, displacement is a vector quantity implying that it has both direction and magnitude.
The magnitude of displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final position. In case of a particle completing one full round around a circle the displacement is ZERO. Because the initial and final positions are one and the same
If displacement of a particle is zero in a uniform circular motion, then the distance travelled by that particle is not zero, kinetic energy is constant, speed is constant and work done is zero
Such a quantity is called a vector. A shining example is velocity itself. velocity is the rate of change of displacement- the distance moved by particle in a specified direction. Since velocity = displacement/time taken = vector/scalar, Velocity thus has both a direction and a magnitude (magnitude = speed of particle) Another examples include quantities such as Force, acceleration, displacement
The amplitude of a sound wave is a measure of the distance between the rest position and the maximum displacement of the particle from its rest position. It is equal to half the total displacement of a vibrating particle.

distance travel led by a particle in a given interval of time is known as displacement. displacement=distance traveled by time taken.Displacement may be zero. it is path length which a particle travels.distance should not be zero.
Negative
The distance, expressed in inches, is(1.2) x (the particle's average speed, in feet per minute) .
You can calculate the magnitude of the displacement by using Pythagoras's Theorem. a2+b2=c2 Let a be 8, b be 6 and c be the magnitude. 8km2+6km2 = c2 64k+36km = c2 100km = c2 10km = c

Particle displacement is a measurement of distance of the movement of a particle in a medium as it transmits a wave. Distance is measured in meters.
A graph that shows displacement plotted against time for a particle moving in a straight line. Let x(t) be the displacement of the particle at time t. The distance-time graph is the graph y=x(t), where the t-axis is horizontal and the y-axis is vertical with the positive direction upwards. The gradient at any point is equal to the velocity of the particle at that time. (Here a common convention has been followed, in which the unit vector i in the positive direction along the line has been suppressed. The displacement of the particle is in fact a vector quantity equal to x(t)i, and the velocity of the particle is a vector quantity equal to x(t)i.)
