Definition
Motion can be defined as the change of position of an object with respect to time. Moving vehicle, Walking person depicts motion. Motion described in terms of displacement, distance, velocity, acceleration.
Types of Motion
- Linear Motion - Motion is linear when all the parts of an object move from one place to another at a particular time.Ex: Train moving on a track. Linear Motion is further classified as
- Rectilinear Motion - When an object in linear motion moves in a straight linear path. Ex: Train moving on a straight track
- Curvilinear Motion - When an object in linear motion moves along a curved path. Ex: Train moving a curved track
