There is really no such thing as an absolute stationary point. By convention one can be picked as any point in the observer's frame of reference (i.e. any point stationary relative to the observer).

Stationary point that is used for speed measurement?

A radar gun is commonly used to measure the speed of a moving object. The radar gun emits a radio wave that bounces off the object and returns to the gun, allowing it to calculate the speed based on the frequency shift of the returned wave. This stationary point can be used by law enforcement for monitoring traffic speeds or by sports officials to measure the speed of a ball or athlete.


What coordinate system is used to establish an origin point and a measurement?

The azimuth system is used to establish an origin point and a measurement.


Which state should a reference point be to be used to determine?

The reference point should be stationary, or not moving.


How is the frame of a reference used to describe speed?

A frame of reference is used to measure the speed of an object by providing a point of comparison. Speed is described relative to a specific frame of reference, such as a stationary observer or another moving object. By establishing a frame of reference, we can determine if an object is moving at a constant speed or changing its velocity.

When an object is seen moving in relation to a stationary object the stationary object is called the frame of reference or reference point?

Yes, the stationary object is called the frame of reference, or reference point, because it provides a fixed point that is used to describe the motion of the moving object. By observing how the moving object changes position in relation to the stationary object, we can analyze its motion.

This is usually called a reference point. Frame of reference is not an incorrect term, but it is used less frequently.
