Question

When the motion of a body is confined to only one plane, the motion is said to be

(a) translatory motion

(b) plane motion

(c) culvilinear motion

(d) none of the mentioned

I got this question during an internship interview.

I'm obligated to ask this question of Linear Velocity topic in portion Kinematics & Kinetics of Motion of Machine Kinematics

Answer 1

The correct option is (b) plane motion

The best explanation: When the motion of a body is confined to only one plane, the motion is said to be plane motion. When the motion of a body is along a straight line path, it is called translatory motion. When the motion of a body is along a curved path, it is called culvilinear motion.
