🔍 Key Concepts

• Ship motion terminology (surge, sway, heave, roll, pitch, yaw) • Difference between linear motion and angular motion • Axes of motion: longitudinal, transverse, and vertical axis

💭 Think About

• First separate which choices are linear motions (straight-line movements) versus rotations (turning about an axis). • Think about which motion describes the ship’s bow changing direction left or right without necessarily leaning or moving sideways. • Match each term to its axis: which one is specifically rotation around the vertical axis going up through the ship?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which terms are rotations versus straight-line movements. • Confirm which axis is vertical (up-and-down through the ship) and what motion happens around it. • Make sure you are not confusing rotation about the longitudinal axis (bow to stern) or transverse axis (side to side) with rotation about the vertical axis.
