In common terms, that means that it is moving.

When do you say an object is at rest and in motion?

An object is considered at rest when it is not changing its position over time. On the other hand, an object is said to be in motion when it is changing its position relative to a reference point over time.


When can we say that an object is in motion?

An object is considered to be in motion when its position changes relative to a reference point over time. Movement can be measured in terms of distance traveled in a specific direction.


When can we say that can object is in motion?

An object is said to be in motion when its position is changing over time relative to a reference point. This change in position can be observed through visual cues or measurements of distance traveled.


Would it be correct to say that inertia causes moving object to continue moving?

Yes, it is correct to say that inertia causes a moving object to continue moving. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion, so once an object is in motion, it will continue moving unless acted upon by an external force.


An object is in motion if its position changes relative to a what?

An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. Motion is a relative quantity and is expressed in respect to the position of another object. Example: both a car and the Earth are moving (earth is revolving around the sun) but if we express the motion of the car in respect to the Earth, we say the car is moving relative to the Earth. At the same time the earth is moving relative to the sun.

How canyou say that an object is moving in an accelerated motion?

You would say that the object in motion is accelerating. Or you can say that the object's velocity is increasing.


When can we say that can is in motion?

It means that the object is moving.


When Newton's law say that an object in motion will stay in?

An object in motion will stay in motion, at a constant velocity. This assumes that no net force acts on the object. This is known as Newton's First Law.

When we can we say that an object is un motion?

That is equivalent to saying that:* The object moves, or * The object's position changes over time


When do we say an object is in motion?

That is equivalent to saying that: * The object is moving, or * The object doesn't stay all the time in the same place.


What does Newton's first law of motion say about object in motion?

The law states "An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."

When we can say the object is in motion?

When its position is changing relative to our position. Note: all motion is relative to something else.
