Difficulty: Medium
Difference between rest and motion:
Rest:
A body is said to be at rest if it does not change its position concerning its surroundings.
Motion:
A body is said to be in motion if it changes its position concerning its surroundings.
The state of rest or motion of a body is relative. For example, a passenger sitting in a moving bus is at rest because he/she is not changing his/her position concerning other passengers or objects on the bus. But to an observer outside the bus, the passengers and the objects inside the bus are in motion.
