Mckenzie Roman · Answer 1

The magnitude of your displacement is usually less than the distance you travel.

The magnitude of your displacement can be equal to the distance you travel, if you travel in a perfectly straight line.

The magnitude of your displacement can never be greater than the distance you travel.
