Specification of a motion

The following rules are valid for a motion given by linear trajectory τ^A of point A and point envelope (b) of straight line b:

- Point A is located on trajectory τ^A at each instant.

- Straight line b passes through point envelope (b) at each instant.

- Point A is the intersection of straight line b and trajectory τ^A.
