Question

Which of the following exhibits rotatory motion but not translatory motion?

• A. A ball delivered by spin bowler
• B. A drill that bores a piece of wood
• C. A spinning fan
• D. The rear wheel of a moving bicycle

Answer 1

The correct option is C A spinning fan

In rotatory motion, the body moves along a circular path about a fixed axis without changing its overall position.
The motion in which all points of a moving body move uniformly in the same line or direction is called translatory motion. A spinning fan only rotates about its axis, it does not exhibit translatory motion.
