motions

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. Motion along a straight line is called rectilinear motion. Motion along a curved path is called curvilinea..

In rotatory motion, the particles of the body describe concentric circles about the axis of motion. Rotatory motion..

Rest and motion are relative terms. A person sitting in a moving car is at rest with respect to his or her fellow passengers, but is in motion with respect to other objects or people on the road. Moreover, it is not possible to define 'absolute rest' or 'absolute motion..

Property due to which a body maintains its state of uniform motion..

Introduction - In the physical world, one of the most common phenomena is motion. The branch of Physics, which deals with the behaviour of moving objects, is known as mechanics. Mechanics is further divided into two sections namely Kinematics and Dynamics. Kinematics deals with the study ..

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. The motion along a straight line is called rectilinear motion. Example: A car moving on a straight road ..

In vibratory motion the particles move to and fro about a fixed point. Simple pendu..

Example: A car negotiating a curve..

Circular Motion - In the example discussed under the topic uniform and non-uniform motion we have classified motion along circular track as an example of non-uniform motion. Let us now see why circular motion is considered as non-uniform motion..

Introduction - Newton's Law of Motion - Whenever we push or pull an object, we do so by means of a force. Force is an interaction between two bodies which causes acceleration, or simply, motion..
