(N/A) One-dimensional motion: The motion of a train moving along a straight track is an example of one-dimensional motion,as it requires only one coordinate to specify its position at any time.
Two-dimensional motion: The motion of a striker on a carrom board is an example of two-dimensional motion,as the striker moves in a plane and requires two coordinates $(x, y)$ to specify its position.
Three-dimensional motion: The motion of a fish swimming in water or a bird flying in the sky is an example of three-dimensional motion,as it requires three coordinates $(x, y, z)$ to specify its position at any given time.
