Question

name the type or types of motion of a piston of an engine​

Answer 1

The piston moves in a reciprocating motion, which is converted into circular motion of the crankshaft, which ultimately propels the vehicle or does other useful work. The reciprocating motion of a pump piston is close to, but different from, sinusoidal simple harmonic motion.These four are rotary, oscillating, linear and reciprocating.
