Motion is a relative concept. Explain.
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
Relative motion is the calculation of the motion of an object with regard to some other moving or stationary object. Thus, the motion is not calculated with reference to the earth, but is the velocity of the object in reference to the other moving object as if it were in a static state. For example, a person sitting in an airplane is at zero velocity relative to the airplane, but is moving at the same velocity as the airplane with respect to the ground. Relative motion is a concept, and its calculation occurs with relative velocity, relative speed, or relative acceleration.
For example, you are in a car and it goes with the velocity of 50 m/s to the east, then a truck passes you with a velocity of 60m/s to the east. ... Velocity of the moving objects with respect to other moving or stationary object is called “relative velocity” and this motion is called “relative motion”.
Motion is a relative concept. In saying that something is moving, what is meant or implied is that its position relative to something else is changing with time. A frame of reference provides the basis for the description of motion.
