A student travels along some path. Which of the following statements is true about the total distance travelled by the student and the magnitude of the displacement from their starting position to their ending position? O The total distance travelled can be either larger or smaller or equal to the magnitude of the displacement. The total distance traveled must always be equal to the magnitude of the displacement. The total distance traveled must be smaller than or equal to the magnitude of the displacement. O The total distance travelled must be larger than or equal to the magnitude of the displacement.
