similirities and differrences between a bicycle and a switched on fan ?

The motion of a bicycle is in rectilinear motion, the object covers a certain distance along a straight line or a track. Whereas the motion of a ceiling fan when switched on is in circular motion,which is not moving from one place to another.The circular motion of the wheel gives the bicycle a rectilinear motion and the periodical motion of a blade of a fan gives the fan a circular motion. Ifmarked in a point on the wheel of a bicycle or a blade on the fan, the distance between the centre of the wheel/fan and the marked point will remain the same as they rotate.

(ii) Both have circular motion about their respective fixed points.

Differences between the motion of a bicycle and a ceiling fan:

(i) A bicycle has linear motion, whereas the blades of a ceiling fan do not have linear motion.

(ii) The motion of the blades of a fan is periodic, whereas the motion of a bicycle is rectilinear motion.
