rotation.
(explain why this is correct in 2 sentences)

Answer 1

The spinning hoop around Talia's waist is an example of rotational motion because all points on the hoop are moving in circular paths around a central axis (the center of the hoop). This rotation is characterized by the constant angular displacement and can be analyzed in terms of angular velocity and angular acceleration, demonstrating the fundamental principles of rotational dynamics.
