    Question

    Which type of motion is represented by the plastic ruler shown below?

    1. Circular
    2. Translatory
    3. Rotatory
    4. Vibratory

    Hint:

    When a body moves to and fro about its mean position is called vibratory motion.

    The correct answer is: Vibratory

       The plastic ruler as shown in the figure moves up and down at regular intervals of time. Hence, it is said to be in vibratory motion.
