Motion is not a 'relative term'. Motion is relative.
The book that you're reading on the airliner while you fly to the coast is
moving at 600 mph relative to somebody on the ground. But relative to
you and your eyes, the book is not moving at all, and you have no trouble
reading it until you fall asleep ... in the seat which is also moving at 600 mph
relative to that guy on the ground.
Now comes the kicker: What is the real speed of the book ?
Answer: There is no such thing. Motion is relative. The book, and anything
else, only ever has speed that is relative to something else. And it can easily
have 300 different speeds, relative to 300 different other things, which are all
moving relative to each other.

Why motion is a relative term?
Motion is relative because it is always defined relative to a reference point or frame of reference. An object's motion may appear different depending on the observer's perspective or frame of reference, making it a relative term. This is described by the concept of relative motion in physics.
What is the term to describe motion when different observers see the same motion differently?
Relative velocity/motion
How can you say that rest and motion are relative terms?
Rest and motion are relative terms because an object's state of rest or motion is defined in relation to another object. An object can be at rest relative to one object but in motion relative to a different object. This concept is based on the principle of relativity in physics, as described by Galileo and later by Einstein in his theory of special relativity.
When is a body said to be in motion in relation to an observer?
when position of the body with respect to an observer change with time then the body are said to be in motion.
What term is used to describe the amount of motion that an object possess?
The term used to describe the amount of motion that an object possesses is "kinetic energy." This energy is associated with the motion of an object relative to a reference point.
Does friction oppose motion or relative motion of surfaces in contact?
Relative motion
What term is defined as a changed in an objects position relative to a reference point?
A change in an objects position relative to a reference point is called motion.
What term is defined as a change in a object position relative to a reference point?
A change in an objects position relative to a reference point is called motion.
What term defines as a change in an objects position relative to a reference point?
A change in an objects position relative to a reference point is called motion.
Is motion a relative term?
i dont know the answer i think you should look it up somewhere else
When is an object said to in motion if it changes in time?
An object is said to be in motion when it changes its position over time relative to a reference point. If an object is moving, it is undergoing a change in its position with respect to its surroundings.
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.
