In some cases, the motion of rotation and the motion of translation occur at the same time.
When a drill cuts through a metal piece, it performs the motion of translation as well as the
motion of rotation at the same time. Other examples of this kind of motion are the wheels of
a moving bicycle or a car, the ball delivered by a spin bowler.
