The motion of a body having both linear and rotatory motion at the
same time is called spiral motion.
A screw driver used to tighten a screw nail, a boy stepping up a
winding staircase, etc are example of spiral motion.

Vibratory motion
When a string of a guitar is plucked, it vibrates. Similarly, when
prongs of a tuning fork are hit to a rubber pad, they vibrate. Here,
the motion of string or prongs is vibratory motion. Hence, the rapid
o
to and fro motion of an object is called vibratory motion or vibration.
ry fast oscill
During vibratory motion, the object has a very fast oscillatory motion.

Curvilinear motion
When direction of a moving body
changes continuously, its motion is
called curvilinear motion. Vehicles on
the curved road takes several turns, we
take several turns while moving on the
sloppy road, etc. These are the examples
of curvilinear motion.
