(a) Linear motion: An object is said to have linear motion if it moves from one point to another in a straight line. For example: The motion of a moving car on a straight road.
(b) Oscillatory motion: The type of motion in which the object moves to and fro repeatedly about a mean or a fixed position is known as oscillatory motion. For example: The movement of pendulum of a clock.
(c) Circular motion: An object is said to possess circular motion if it moves from one point to another in such a way that its distance from a fixed point always remains constant. For example: The movement of the blades of a fan.
(d) Periodic motion: An object is said to possess periodic motion if it moves in such a way that it repeats its motion after a certain interval of time. For example: The motion of a swing.
