Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
A moving object changes its position with its respective time. In some cases, the displacement of the object is less than the distance travelled by it. The actual path travelled by an object is distance. Displacement is defined as the shortest distance travelled between the initial point and the final point. If the path is straight line, then the displacement is equal to the distance travelled in other cases displacement is less than the distance travelled.
