What is motion? Types of motion

Motion:-

When a body does not change its position with time it is said that it is in rest but when it changes it is called that body is in motion.

Types of Motion:-

There are few basic types of motion:

1. Translational motion

2. Rotational motion

3. Random motion

4. Circular motion

Translational:-

A body covering some distance while moving whether it is on straight line or curved line, but distance covering is necessary. it is known as translational motion.

i.e. You driving a car towards your destination the road sometimes will not be straight turns will come but you will cover distance.

Rotational:-

A body moving on its axis and its all parts have different directions. no matter in which direction it moves but move on its axis is known as rotational motion.

i.e. A beblayde moving on its axis, a fan blades moving.

Random Motion:

When a body moves randomly, it is known as random motion.
Random motion means when body doesn't follow a specific path just a zig zag type path to move then this movement is known as random motion.

i.e. Fly, Mosquitoes etc,  flying around you randomly is an example of random motion.

Circular Motion:

When a body moves in a circular path, it is known as circular motion.

it is simple type of motion when body moves in a closed circular path it is known as circular motion.

i.e. a racing car moving on a circular racing track.
