Question

'State of rest in absolute'. justify this statement with appropriate examples.

Answer 1

Answer:

Absolute rest refers to a now-discarded idea that there does exist a special inertial frame, which is "really" at rest, and with respect to which all other motion should be measured.

Rest and motion are always relative. A body cannot exist at a state of absolute rest or absolute motion. For example, two persons sitting in a moving bus are at rest w.r.t each other but are in motion w.r.t. a person standing on the roadside.
