Which best represents translational movement? A. a moving car stops B. a marble spins C. a bicycle wheel turns D. the earth spins on its axis **not sure:( Thank you!!

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Hey there! Translational motion means motion in a straight line.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

translational is like shifting left, right, up, down basically moving the object along a straight line (yeah as Abhisar is saying)

OpenStudy (abhisar):

or to be more precise Linear Motion.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

D would be rotation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh okay! :) so it would be A? since the car stops in a straight movement?

OpenStudy (abhisar):
