Why is the idea of absolute motion or rest misleading?

It's misleading to discuss those ideas because there are no such things as absolute motion or rest.


Can rest and motion be absolute but how and in which theory?

No, they can't. But they are in Isaac Newton's classic theory of motion.


Is speed a dominat trait?

Motion is a fundamental property of the universe, nothing is at absolute rest.


Is there anybody in absolute rest or anbsolute motion?

This cannot be answered. This does not make any sense.


1 Can the state of absolute rest or motion be defined for any object?

Absolute rest is commonly called absolute zero. To cool something by extracting energy it must be placed in an environment with less average energy than it contains; this requires the environment to be already at or below absolute zero, which requires something to make it that temperature. This thing must be at or below absolute zero as well... and we enter a causality loop where being able to do one thing requires it to have been done. Thus it is impossible.


Is the inertial reference frame an absolute reference frame?

No, an inertial reference frame is not an absolute reference frame. It is a frame of reference in which an object either remains at rest or moves with constant velocity in a straight line, but it is not considered absolute as its motion can be affected by external forces.


What is absolute rest?

The earth rotates and also undergoes revolution and is therefore classified as a moving object.so the plants and building on earth cannot be at rest and must also be state in motion, with respect to the sun and heavenly bodies, then it is called absolute rest.


Can motion and rest be absolute?

In theory, yes, but how you would define, leave alone measure or prove it, I struggle to imagine.


Is absolute motion possible?

Absolute motion is motion relative to a presumed absolute reference frame. Special Relativity posits that the laws of nature are perfectly symmetrical with respect to any inertial reference frame. This implies that there is no absolute reference frame, and that absolute motion is a useless concept.


Is a pen at rest in motion?

The theory of relativity says there's no absolute frame of reference, so as long as the pen is not accelerating it's your choice whether to use a reference frame in which it's at rest or in motion. In other words, your question is meaningless.


Is motion absolute?

No. Motion and rest are only relative. The beauty is: The very space is relative. Time too is relative. Then which is the absolute? You are the absolute. The one who asks, the one who searches, the one who observes, is the absolute. But this becomes true only when one has Self Realization. Who am I? This is the valid query to be made by each and every one of us. All the best dear.


Is motion relative or absolute?

motion is realtive
