the point of view that you describe motion from is whatever you choose it to be.
generally we describe motion relative to earth.
for example you could say that a car is moving 60mph north, and it would be assumed to be moving relative to earth; but if someone is riding their bike 10mph north, then the car is moving 50mph north relative to the bike.
you see, you could describe the car moving compared to a star in a distant galaxy if you wanted, but that would be useless information so you should choose something relative to the problem.

One point of view from which to describe motion is the observer's frame of reference. This point of view defines the position and motion of an object relative to the observer. By choosing a specific frame of reference, we can describe how an object moves in relation to that reference point.

What is a point of view with regard to motion called in physics?
Frame of reference
Why do you need to include a reference point when you describe the motion of an object?
Motion is relative. There must be something to compare it to.
What is a common frame of reference when you describe motion?
An origin or zero point.
Describe a situation in which motion is described in terms of a reference point?
:p hi
Why is the reference important in order to describe motion?
Motion is always relative, depending on the reference point. If a tree is the reference point, then the car zooming past will be moving. But, if you use the car as the reference point, then it seems as though the tree is zooming past.

What is the point of view of romeo and Juliet?
Romeo and Juliet, at least the one written by Shakespeare, is a play. The point of view is the point of view of the audience watching the play. Terms used to describe the point of view of a narrator in a story or novel are inappropriate to plays.
Is an object in motion from every point of view?
Never, because it's always relative.

The two factors that describe motion are thing. :)
Am right that Non Theism is oldest Religion Next To Theism?
I am a non-monarchist. Describe for me my active political point of view; what is my political view in practice?
Can a body be said to be in rest or in uniform motion in same time?
Yes, it all depends on the point of view. An object can be at rest for one observer, and in uniform motion for a different observer.
