Q. If all the points on a rigid body are performing circular motion about a common axis of rotation then one can deduce that the body is undergoing pure rotational motion.

Q. What is the total volume of the particles present in a body centered unit cell?

Q. Centre of mass is a special point on the body where we can forget the velocities of all other points on the body and consider only its velocity as the velocity for the body. So for a body undergoing rotational motion we can find the velocity of its centre of mass and forget all other velocities and treat it just like a translatory motion i.e, circular motion?
