The types of motion hidden in the puzzle are rotational motion, rectilinear motion, circular motion and periodic motion.

(i) Rotational motion: It is the motion of an object through a circular path about a fixed axis. The movement of a spinning top is an example of rotational motion.

(ii) Rectilinear motion: It is the motion of an object along a straight line. The motion of a train is an example of rectilinear motion.

(iii) Circular motion: It is the motion of an object along a circular path. The motion of blades of an electric fan is an example of circular motion.

(iv) Periodic motion: Motion that repeats itself at regular interval of time is periodic motion. The motion of a child on a swing is an example of periodic motion.
