Solution

The correct option is A

translatory


Explanation for correct option(s):-

Option (a):- translatory motion

When an object as a whole, moves from one place to another, it is termed translatory motion.

Explanation for incorrect option(s):-

Option (b):- circular motion

When an object moves in a circular path, the motion is known as circular motion.

Option (c):- oscillatory motion

When an object moves to-and-fro about a fixed point it is said to be in oscillation motion.

Option (d):- periodic motion

A repetitive motion that takes place at equal intervals of time is called periodic motion.

Thus, when an object as a whole, moves in a straight path, it is termed translatory motion. Hence option (a) is correct.
