Which is the best example of rotational motion?
-The skater repeated the figure eight on the ice.
-Sara spun the dreidel on its pointed end.
-Craig sent the pool ball spinning toward the side pocket.
-The mouse ran in circles around the mousetrap.
It i sn A BECAUSE IT MAKES SENSE DONT GO TO THIS WEBSITES WORK ON YOUR OWN SO THAT YOU CAN REALLY LEARN
wth -_- this sucky
The best example of rotational motion among the given options is:
-Craig sent the pool ball spinning toward the side pocket.
To determine the best example of rotational motion, we need to identify an object that undergoes circular or rotational motion. In this case, Craig sending the pool ball spinning involves the ball rotating or moving in a circular path.
The mouse REVOLVED around the trap
The skater turned one way, then the other
The ball ROLLED
but
Sara did indeed ROTATE (spin) that dreidel
The earth REVOLVES (trudges) around the sun once a year.
but
The earth ROTATES (spins) about its north south axis every day.
The moon rotates around its axis and revolves around the earth both with the same period of one month, so you always see the man in the moon if he is lit up.
( Is this English or Physics? Beats me. )
