Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
There are different types of motion, such as straight line, circular, rotational or oscillatory. When an object is moving in a circular path around a centre, then this motion is considered circular motion. The motion of a body when it spins about a fixed axis is called rotational motion. For example, the earth is rotating about its own axis, which results in days. The spinning top is rotational motion.
