Question

Can an object be in pure translation as well as in pure rotation?

Answer 1

Answer ⇒ No, The object be in pure translation as well as in pure rotation.

Explanation ⇒ In pure translation, each particle of the body always moves in the parallel lines while in the case of the pure rotation the particles of a body always move in concentric circles.

Thus, Both the conditions cannot be true at the same time.

Hence, the answer is no, i.e., the object can not in Pure Rotation and Pure Transnational Motion at the same time.

In Transnational motion body moves in the straight line whereas in Rotational motion body moves in the Rotational Path.
