Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
If an object undergoes two or more types of motion simultaneously, it is said to be in combined or multiple motions. For example, the Earth undergoes circular motion to move around the Sun and rotational motion to spin about its axis. This happens at a fixed interval of time, and thus, it also undergoes periodic motion. Hence the motion of the Earth is an example of combined motion.
