By giving an example, prove that rest and motion are relative terms.
By giving an example, prove that rest and motion are relative terms.
Rest and motion are opposed to each other, yet there is a close relation between them. For example, a person sitting in the compartment of a moving train is in a state of rest, with respert to the surroundings of compartment. Yet he is in a state of motion, if he compares himself with surroundings outside the compartment
