I think it's important to know if your reference point moves because your reference point is the object that's not supposed to move and if it moves it will mess up your hypothesis of thinking that your 1st object moves. It takes a while to completely understand the answer, or even the question

What should you know to find the exact position of a moving body?
We need to know the reference point and distance.
What do you know about an object if it changes position relative to a reference point?
your question is a but vague. the answer refers to the Newtonian aspect of it: if you have a reference point, then you can measure the difference between the two places of that object. taking time into account, you can derive its velocity and acceleration rate. matar
How do you know IF a object is moving?
Objects are always moving. The earth is moving and so everything on it. Nothing even off the planet ever stops moving because ALL motion is relative. Something is only not moving relative to something moving the same way.
How do you know your moving?
If you see anything that appears to be moving, then you know that relative to that thing, you're moving. That's the best and only thing you can do, because there is no such thing as 'really' moving ... only moving relative to something.
When you know both the speed and direction of a moving object you know the?
velocity
Why is it important know if your reference point is moving?
It's important to know that you reference point is moving because if an object is in motion and if it changes position it is relevant to a reference point.
Why is it important to know that your reference point is moving?
If your reference point it moving, then it cannot be considered a reference point. Your reference point should be something constant. Something that can be relative to any situation. If it moves, you lose this relativity.

I Dont know thats why im asking it!!

Why do you need a reference point to know an object is moving?
A reference point is part of the definition of movement or displacement. The difference, over time, of your distance or orientation to a given reference point or points defines movement.

What will you call a building if you compared it with a moving student?
I know this because it was on my exam and i got the question right. Answer- A reference point.
How many different directions are you moving while sitting on a chair?
It depends on your reference point. You are moving when you move farther away from one reference point and closer to another. So an example of this could be that the floor is one reference point, and the ceiling is another. If you jump up, you would move closer to the ceiling and farther away from the floor. If you and a friend are your reference points, and you throw a ball to your friend, the ball moved bacause it went farther from you, and closer to your friend! That is how you know an object is moving! Now, technically we are always moving... the earth is moving! So if you are thinking about it like that, then maybe the sun is one reference point, and Mars could be the other! Who knows! But it just all depends on your reference point!
What is point of reference?
When you want to compare something or measure something, in order to make the comparison you have to know and agree where you are starting from. The point at which you are starting is your "reference point"
What is relative physics?
Relative means it depends on the person's reference frame/point-of-view. For example, when you're in a moving car, your point-of-view tells you that the car is not moving at all (after all you're inside the car all the time, you only know the car is moving because the objects outside the car are moving against you). But another person standing on the sidewalk will see your moving car as moving at, say, 50 mph.
What is the difference between frame of reference and reference point?
There is no difference. For Example, reference point means where you see something out of somewhere, and frame of reference means seeing something out of somethings "eyes" i know it sounds weird but i hope i helped.
What are some examples of reference point?
A reference point is anything that is stationary. So, if you are on a train you know you have left the station because you moved away from the platform. Hence the platform was stationary.
