medium Q5 of 15
General Science - Physics (Basics)
Which of the following is NOT an example of oscillatory motion?
AVibrations of a guitar string
BMotion of a car on a straight road
CMovement of a child on a swing
DPendulum swinging in a clock
Step-by-Step Solution
  1. Step 1: Understand oscillatory motion

    Oscillatory motion is repeated back and forth motion about a mean position.
  2. Step 2: Analyze options

    Guitar string vibrations, child on a swing, and pendulum swinging all move back and forth repeatedly. A car moving straight does not oscillate.
  3. Final Answer:

    Motion of a car on a straight road → Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Non-oscillatory motion = car moving straight ✅
Quick Trick: Oscillatory motion always involves back and forth movement.
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Mistaking straight motion as oscillatory.
