Correct answer: A. Revolution
- A. Revolution
- B. Rotation
- C. Both of them
- D. None of them
Explanation
If an object is undergoing an orbital motion around another object it is called revolution. An orbit is a repeating and regular path where one object takes another object in space. An object with a larger mass moves front and it keeps moving forward. This orbital motion by an object towards another object is called revolution.One complete revolution around the sun by Earth takes a year.We all know that the sun is a huge massive object in our solar system.The remaining objects in the solar system are subjected to the gravitational pull of the sun.

About Angular and Linear Quantities
Rotational motion relates angular displacement, angular velocity and angular acceleration to linear displacement, tangential velocity and tangential acceleration through the radius. Questions use radians, v equals r omega and tangential acceleration, while distinguishing tangential velocity from centripetal acceleration and angular quantities from their linear counterparts.
