Question

which situation is the best example of translational motion?
a coin spinning on a desk
a leaf blowing across the field
a ballerina standing on one foot
a car in a parking lot with its engine running

Explanation:

Translational motion is the movement of an object from one point to another. A coin spinning is rotational motion. A ballerina standing still has no motion in terms of translation. A car with engine running in parking lot is stationary. A leaf blowing across the field moves from one location to another, which is translational motion.

Answer:

a leaf blowing across the field
