Is it possible that the train in which you are sitting appears to move while it is at rest?

Yes. For example, if you are sitting on a train that is at rest, but there is a train on the next track that is moving, it may appear that you are moving.

Yes. For example, if you are sitting on a train that is at rest, but there is a train on the next track that is moving, it may appear that you are moving.
Have you ever experienced that the train in which you are sitting appears to move while you are at rest?
yes, a train in which you are sitting appears to move while it is at rest, because of relative term as motion & rest are relative term . Actually it is depend upon observer. Example- If a boy sitting in train, when he see a man moving outside the train, it seems to him that it is in motion.
Why does a train in which you are sitting appears to move while it is at rest?
because maybe the other objects are moving
When a person is sitting in a train the train is moving is the person in rest or motion?
Technically, the person is resting itself, but is in motion as long as the train is moving. ================================================== There is no 'absolute' answer. All motion is relative to the 'frame' in which it's measured. A physicist on the same train, sitting across the aisle from the person, observes the person to be at 'rest' in the physicist's frame. Another physicist, sitting in his car at a crossing, watching the train go by, observes the person to be moving past him at 50 mph. Both physicists are correct, because they're making their measurements in different 'reference frames'. By the way . . . the physicist in his car observes the physicist in the train to be moving too. At the same time, the physicist in the train is so at rest that he's preparing to take a nap. Have you ever read a book while you're in a passenger jet flying along at 400 mph ? Were you at rest or moving ? The answer is 'yes'. ============================================================== Very good point.
What is apparant motion?
Motion that appears to happen (but in reality may not - it may be due to changing frames of reference).ExamplesThe Sun appears to move from East to West across the sky during the course of a day.Some stars appear to move relative to some other stars.While seated in a moving train if another train comes alongside for a while and maintains the same speed there may be very little relative motion but when their speeds differ one appears to move slowly (even though from an observer outside the train both are moving rapidly). It may even be difficult from on board the trains to determine which of the trains actually is moving.

How does the maglev train differ from a normal train?
The biggest difference is that a maglev train is not touching anything while it is traveling, while a normal train is sitting on steel rails at all times.
Someone experienced that the train in which he was sitting appeared to move while it was at rest but in fact a train on the neighboring platform was departing what is the reason for it?
If the train appeared to be moving while it was at rest, it is because of inertia.

Is it unsafe to shut a car off while waiting for a train?
It depends... If you are sitting on the tracks, no. You'd die. If you are waiting in the car away from the tracks, then yes.
