What is the motion of the object . When the object is in rectilinear motin?
Answers
You can describe the motion of an object by its position, speed, direction, and acceleration. An object is moving if its position relative to a fixed point is changing. Even things that appear to be at rest move.
Explanation:
Rectilinear motion is a motion of a particle or object along a straight line. Position is the location of object and is given as a function of time s(t) or x(t)
Answer:
❖ Motion of an object is defined as the change in position of an object with respect to a reference frame.
❖ Motion can be of various types like that of linear motion, rotational motion, rolling motion, etc.
❖ It should always be remembered that motion will be considered with respect to a particular reference frame. The reference frame can be a plane, a line, a point , etc.
❖ An object is said to be in rectilinear motion in the following case:
1. Rectilinear motion is also called linear motion or straight line motion.
2. A classic example is the travelling of light or any electromagnetic wave through a medium.
3. The criteria for this kind of motion is that the object (in motion) should stay at a constant distance from a particular "reference line".
