Question
State different types of motion?

Answer

Following are different types of motion:
  • Translatory Motion: In Translatory motion the particle moves from one point in space to another. This motion may be along a straight line or along a curved path.
  • Rectilinear motion: Motion along a straight line is called rectilinear motion. Example: A car moving on a straight road.
  • Curvilinear motion: Motion along a curved path is called curvilinear motion. Example: A car negotiating a curve.
  • Rotatory Motion: In rotatory motion, the particles of the body describe concentric circles about the axis of motion.
  • Vibratory Motion: In vibratory motion the particles move to and fro about a fixed point.
