Solution

The correct option is B Statement 1 is false but statement 2 is true.
Periodic motion is the motion of an object which repeats itself in some fixed duration of time called a period.
Eg: Motion of hands of a clock is circular and it repeats itself. Hence it becomes a periodic motion.
Earth going around the sun is another example of periodic motion.
