Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The displacement can be defined as the shortest distance between the initial and the final point of the path covered by the moving body. Also, displacement could be positive, negative, or zero, but it is known that the distance is always positive or zero. Hence, the displacement ratio to the distance travelled by a moving object is always equal to less than 1.​
