Why the ratio of displacement to distance is never greater than 1?
The technical answer is that displacement is the vector sum of the distances. An example to illustrate the difference in less technical terms, distance travelled in one direction added to the same distance in the opposite direction will result in the total distance being twice the distance of each leg but the total displacement is 0.
Why can the distance be less than the displacement?
