Objects that are "stationary" on Earth's surface are moving faster nearer the equator. The eastward motion of the rotating Earth is greatest at the equator (about 1037 mph or 1670 kph).

Water.
An ocean current?
Stars, which are constantly moving away from Earth, have a red tint to them because of the Doppler effect. Also, think of a car moving past you. If you're standing stationary on a sidewalk, and you hear a car approaching, passing, and then moving away from you, the pitch of the engine changes. This is also because of the Doppler effect.
No. A geostationary satellite appears to be stationary in the sky, which means not moving. This is a big part of the reason why it is referred to as a geo'stationary' satellite.

Relative motion. To talk about a train moving at a certain speed usually means that the train is moving at a certain speed relative to a stationary observer (relative to the ground). This however also means that a passenger traveling in said train would experience the ground (and every other stationary object) as the moving object. This is why a stationary train may seem to be moving to passengers of an already moving train.
it is all relative
Movement Occurs When an Object moves Relative to a Stationary Object
technically water is never stationary as it is made up of moving particles
The best that can be said is that you are moving relative to the Earth's surface.
Stationary is only meaningful in regard to a defined "Reference Frame", or "Point of Reference". The object is not moving relative to that Frame or Point.
A stationary front. Stationary fronts end up moving or dissipating.
Yes if the train is moving forward, you are moving at the train speed + walking speed relative to the tracks.
Because there's no such thing as "really" stationary or "really" moving. If the distance between a point on one train and a point on the other train is changing, then a person on either train says that the other train is moving, and both of them are correct. A "stationary" train only appears to be moving if the train you're on is moving relative to that one.
