Solution

The correct option is D
Rectilinear motion.

The fan rotates about a fixed axis hence it exhibits rotatory motion. The blades of the fan describe the circular motion. During the rotation, the different particles repeat their motion about a certain point, in a fixed interval of time, exhibiting periodic motion.
