Question

Describe different types of motion, write the examples of each each types of motion

Answer 1

Answer:

2 Circular a) Motion of satellites around planets. b) Motion of car turning to a curved track

3 Rotational a) Motion of giant wheel b) Motion of wheels of moving vehicle

4 Periodic a) Motion of simple pendulum b) Motion of Earth on its own axis.

Answer 2

Answer:

When a body does not change its position with time, we can say that the body is at rest, while if a body changes its position with time, it is said to be in motion.

Explanation:

Types Of Motion

Motion is classified into three types as follows:

• Linear Motion

• Rotary Motion

• Oscillatory Motion

Linear Motion

In linear motion, the particles move from one point to another in either a straight line or a curved path. The linear motion depending on the path of motion is further divided as follows

• Rectilinear Motion – The path of the motion is a straight line.

• Curvilinear Motion – The path of the motion is curved.

Rotary Motion

• Rotatory motion is the motion that occurs when a body rotates on its own axis

Oscillatory Motion

• Oscillatory motion is the motion of a body about its mean position.

• The pendulum of a clock exhibits oscillatory motion as it moves to and fro about its mean position.
