Question

The motion of a flying mosquito is an example of

• A. periodic motion
• B. random motion
• C. oscillatory motion

Answer 1

The correct option is B

random motion

1. The motion that repeats itself after an interval of time is called periodic motion.
2. The to and fro motion of a body is called oscillatory motion.
3. A mosquito flies here and there and does not follow any particular motion.
4. So, this type of motion is called random motion.

hence, Option (B) is the correct option.
