Answer:
c) Everything in the universe is constantly in motion, so it depends on your frame of reference
Explanation:
- Motion is relative, this means that by looking from different perspectives or points of reference, we can observe different types of motion or rest.
- For example, in a moving train, to the observer standing outside the train on the platform, the people inside the train are in motion.
- On the contrary, for the people seated inside the train, it seems to them that they are at rest.
- Similarly, if you were to observe the earth from space, it would look like the Earth is in motion (rotation and revolution).
- However, for us, the people living on Earth, it seems that the Earth is at rest because we do not see or experience any motion.
- This hence proves that motion is relative and motion or rest depends on the frame of reference.
