What is motion ?????
Answers
Motion, in physics, change with time of the position or orientation of a body. Motion along a line or a curve is called translation. ... In both cases all points in the body have the same velocity (directed speed) and the same acceleration (time rate of change of velocity).
◆ Movement of any object from one position to another position with respect to the observer is called as Motion.
There are 2 types of motion :-
- Uniform motion
- Non - Uniform motion
Uniform Motion :- When an object covers equal distance in equal intervals of time is called a Uniform motion.
Non - Uniform Motion :- When an object covers unequal distance in equal intervals of time is called Non - Uniform Motion.
Motion along a straight line :-
When an object moves along a straight line, the motion of the object is called rectilinear motion.
For example = Motion of a car on highway.
Distance :- Length of path covered by a moving and object in the given time irrespective of the direction is called Distance.
Displacement :- The shortest distance measured from initial to the final position of an object is called as the Displacement.
