Solution
The correct options are
B Circular motion
C Periodic motion
Motion of objects in a circular path is known as circular motion. In the case of moon going around the sun, the path taken is (roughly) circular. Hence, it is said to be in a circular motion.
The motion that repeats itself in a definite time interval is called periodic motion. Since, the moon repeats the motion after every 28 days, it is in periodic motion as well.
