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 radial axis runs from the tire center toward the tread, and is the vertical axis running from the roadway through the tire center toward the vehicle. This axis supports the vehicleâs weight. The lateral axis runs sideways across the tread. This axis is parallel to the tire mounting axle on the vehicle.
