What else can I help you with?
What is the term to describe motion when different observers see the same motion differently?
Relative velocity/motion
Does friction oppose motion or relative motion of surfaces in contact?
Relative motion
An object is in motion if its position changes relative to a what?
An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. Motion is a relative quantity and is expressed in respect to the position of another object. Example: both a car and the Earth are moving (earth is revolving around the sun) but if we express the motion of the car in respect to the Earth, we say the car is moving relative to the Earth. At the same time the earth is moving relative to the sun.
Can an object be at rest as well as in motion at same time?
An object can be at rest relative to a second object whilst in motion relative to a third object.For example, if you sit still then relative to the Earth you are at rest. However the Earth is both spinning on its axis and travelling around the Sun, so relative to an observer in space you are in motion. Einstein showed us that all such concepts are relative.

Does friction oppose motion or relative motion of surface in contact?
Friction opposes the relative motion of surfaces in contact. It acts in the direction opposite to the direction of motion or tendency of motion between two surfaces.
Motion relative to observers frame of?
Motion is relative to an observer's frame of Reference.
A body which is in both rest and motion?
At rest and in motion are relative terms. When we say 'in motion' or 'at rest' we mean relative to something else. If you were travelling in a car for instance, you would be at rest relative to the car but in motion relative to the outside world.
Prove that rest and motion are relative terms?
Actually sitting on the earth we feel as if we are at rest. But relative to the pole star we are moving along a circular path. Also relative to the sun we are moving along an elliptical path around the sun. So actually speaking we are not at rest. In the same nothing is stationary. Everything is in motion. Rest means only a relative term.
Is motion relative or absolute?
motion is realtive
Why does another car driving side by side seem to not be in motion?
Due to reletive motion between both cars if the speed of both cars are same then the relative motion is w zero
