Question

Doing a cartwheel is a real-life example of a rotation.
True
False

Answer 1

False

Explanation:

A rotation movement is defined as the circular movement of an object on an axe, where the axe is inside or the middle of the object.

A motion only can be considered as a rotation if the trajectory of the motion describes a circle, and this circle have an axe inside the body. In this case the axe is outside the body, so it would be just a translation movement.

Answer 2

I think the correct answer is true. Doing a cartwheel is a real-life example of a rotation. Rotation means turning around a center. It should be that the distance from the center to any point of an object stays the same for it to be considered a rotation.
