Linear Motion vs. Rotational Motion â¢ Linear motion involves an object moving from one point to another in a straight line.â¢ Rotational motion involves an object rotating about an axis. â Examples include a merry-go-round, the rotating earth, a spinning skater, a top, and a turning wheel.
The linear speed tells us the rate at which the linear distance moved, while the rotational speed tells us the rate at which number of rotations or revolutions taken. We can convert linear speed to rotational speed as : V is linear speed and. r is radius of rotational (revolutional) path.
