Motion is always measured for something in relation to something else. A car is travveling in relation to the road, but the steering wheel is stationary in relation to the dashboard.

Does friction oppose motion or relative motion of surface in contact?
Relative motion
What is the definition of the word relative motion?
Relative motion is the concept that the motion of all objects is relative to other objects. If you are sitting still right now you are not moving relative to the earth, however you are moving relative to sun.
All motion is relative to what?
All motion is relative to yourself, as there is no fixed point anywhere in our universe, as it is all traveling away from the center of the big bang. But if we ever find where the bigbang happened, that would be where all motion is relative to
What does coriolis affect mean?
deflection of moving objects when the motion is described relative to a rotating reference frame.
How can you describe the motion of an object?
By the relative motion of neighbour objects
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.

Is motion relative or absolute?
motion is realtive

When we can say the object is in motion?
When its position is changing relative to our position. Note: all motion is relative to something else.
What is your idea about G person who travelling with his friends in a cartis he in motion or in rest?
He is in motion relative to me, and he is at rest relative to his friends. There is no 'real' rest or 'real' motion. It's always measured relative to something else.
What relative motion?
An object's motion in relation to something else
