Answer:
No it is not possible that distance is zero when displacement is zero
Explanation:
when a body is going in a straight line
it have a displacement of zero but not the distance because distance is the actual path between two points while displacement is the shortest distance between two points so in a straight path
we consider displacement as
zero but not the distance.
The other example of it is a circular path .
In circular path displacement is zero but not the distance .
Now if you are not understand it then take a notebook and draw the diagram of a straight and curcular path .I hope you will be understand completely .
