Spaced Revision

Come back to Motion after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • Rest means no change of position with respect to a fixed point.
  • Motion means change of position with time.
  • Rest and motion depend on the observer and surroundings.
  • Translatory motion: every point moves the same distance in the same time.
  • Rectilinear motion: motion in a straight line.
  • Curvilinear motion: motion along a curved path.
  • A motion can be identified by the path and behaviour of the body.
  • Circular motion is different from rotatory motion.
  • Oscillatory motion and vibratory motion are not the same.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Rest and motion are fixed properties of an object.

Translatory motion means the object must move in a straight line.

Rotatory motion and circular motion are the same.

Memory Tips

Motion and rest are relative
