List of the motion types are:
(i) Rectilinear motion: Handle bar or seat of the bicycle has rectilinear motion only. It moves in a straight line as the wheels of the bicycle move forward.
(ii) Circular motion: Pedal of the bicycle is having circular motion only as it rotates with its shaft but does not move from its place.
(iii) Rectilinear and circular motion: Wheel of the bicycle has both circular and rectilinear motion. Wheels rotate on their shafts as well as move forward on the ground.
