When a body moves around a fixed axis it has Correct Answer A circular motion

Circular motion:

When the body is revolving around a fixed axis that is not passing through the body or not passing through the center of gravity, then the body is under circular motion.

Example:

When the earth is revolving around the sun, it is having circular motion around the sun.

Rotational motion:

When the body is revolving around a fixed axis that is passing through the center of gravity of a body, then the body is under rotary motion.

Example:

When the earth is revolving around its own axis, it is having rotational motion.

Translational motion:

When the body moves from one point to the other point in space along a same line, then it is under a translational motion.

Example:

A car moving from point A to point B

Combined rotational and translational motion:

When the body is revolving around a fixed axis that is passing through the center of gravity of a body and also moving from one point to another in space, then it is under a combined rotational and translational motion.

Example:

A wheel of a vehicle is rotating as well as moving from one point to another.

A rigid body is rotating about an axis. One force F1 acts on the body such that its vector passes through the axis of rotation. Another force F2 acts on it such that it is perpendicular to the axis of rotation and at a point 5cm from the axis. This force F2 is perpendicular to the radius vector at its point of application. Find the net torque on the body. Let F1 = 10N & F2= 5N.
