If an object moves without rotation or angular displacement, it is called translation.

Hi!


The answer is True.


Angular displacement is defined as the angle an object travels through, in a circular path, or in other terms -rotation.

Translation is a type of geometric transformation which results in the motion of each point on an object in a particular direction by the same distance. An object moving without rotation is said to have a movement known as translation.


Hope this helps!
