1.	Can you explain the translation of a car by the translation of a single particle? Justify your answer.
Answer» SOLUTION :Yes, the translation of a single particle can describe that of a car. A car is a combination of a LARGE NUMBER of particles. By the DEFINITION of translation each of these particles has a motion identical to that of the OTHERS. So the motion of any one of the particles is sufficient to describe the motion of the car.
