Answer: The magnitude of displacement is equal to distance traveled when motion is in a straight line
distance is the measure of the length between two points where as displacement is the shortest distance between the points.
Displacement
The shortest distance between any two points is called displacement.
the shortest distance between two points.
The distance between two points is called the "distance" or "Euclidean distance" in geometry.

Displacement is the shortest distance between the starting and ending points of an object's motion, while distance is the total length of the path traveled by the object.
Distance is the total length traveled by an object, while displacement is the shortest distance between the starting and ending points, taking into account direction.
Displacement is the shortest distance between two points in a specific direction, while distance is the total length traveled regardless of direction.
Distance is the total length of the path traveled between two points, while displacement is the direct line distance between those points. Distance can be equal to or greater than the magnitude of displacement if the path followed is not a straight line.
In plane geometry, the shortest distance between two points is a line. In spherical geometry, the shortest distance between two points is a segment of a great circle. The distance between one point and another is known as the displacement.
