What is the significance of defining a coordinate system to study the motion of an object?
If the coordinate system is "inertial" (stationary, or moving in a straight line at a constant speed without rotation), then the motion will be the same as in any other inertial system, and Newton's laws of motion apply. If the coordinate system is not inertial (e.g. if it's rotating, or moving in circular path, or accelerating in a straight line), then Newton's laws of motion will not apply if the motion is calculated in the non-inertial frame. For example, if you are sitting at a table in a room that is slowly rotating, and roll a ball across the table, it will appear to move in a curved line across the table. But if you were looking from a stationary point above the room, you would see that the ball rolled in a straight line, and the table was moving under it.
Explain why you are doing work on a book when you pick it up but not when you carry it across the room.?
The scientific definition of work is using force to move an object over a distance. When you use your hand to lift the book off the floor, you are going against the force of gravity that is attracting it to the floor in order to lift the book in the air, from one location to the next. However, when you carry a book across the room, you are not fighting a force. As a matter of fact, the book has not left your hand; therefore, you are not moving it anywhere. The tricky thing is to not think of of the book as moving across the room - YOU are moving across the room; the book is still sitting in your hand. Now, if you THROW the book across the room, that is different entirely.

What are the uses of motion detectors?
The detector senses a person is moving (motion) and a switch is set to on. It depends on why the motion sensor was installed. Maybe an warning alarm is sounded, a camera could begin to record, or a light in the room or passageway is turned on.
An odor moving from one part of the room to another is osmosis or diffusion?
diffusion. Osmosis is movement across a semipermeable membrane

sugar molecules are widely spreaded and are moving at random motion
Why can we smell perfume from the other side of the room?
We smell because of particles in the air. Air currents , due to people moving about or fans in the room. carry the particles across the room and the nerves in your nose detect them.
