The ratio of the distance covered to the displacement of a particle moved along a semi-circle of radius r is π. This is because the distance covered around the semi-circle is the circumference (2πr), while the displacement is the diameter of the circle (2r). The ratio is therefore (2πr) / (2r) = π.
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.
Yes, the distance covered by a body can be greater than the magnitude of displacement if the body moves along a curved path rather than a straight line. Distance is a scalar quantity that measures the total length of the path traveled, while displacement is a vector quantity that measures the shortest distance between the initial and final positions.
The distance covered by a body will be equal to its displacement when the body moves in a straight line without changing direction. This occurs when the body moves from one point to another point in a straight path, as the distance covered will be the same as the displacement between the initial and final positions.
"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,displacement is the shortest distance covered by a body,so distance covered by a body may be greater than the displacement.
Distance covered - 2199m Displacement - 200m Distance covered - 2199m Displacement - 200m
Distance travelled is the total distance covered during the motion and displacement is the distance between the final and initial position.

Distance covered (displacement) and the time taken to cover the distance.
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)
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.
Distance is the total length covered by an object in motion, regardless of direction. Displacement is the change in position of an object in a straight line from its initial position to its final position. It considers direction and is a vector quantity.
