Question

A person standing on the road is ________ with respect to trees near the road and ________ with respect to a person sitting in a moving bus.

• A. in motion, in motion
• B. at rest, in motion
• C. at rest, at rest
• D. in motion, at rest

Answer 1

The correct option is B at rest, in motion

A person standing on the road is at rest with respect to the trees near the road because the position of the person standing on the road is not changing with respect to the trees.

The person standing outside the moving bus is in motion with respect to the person inside the bus as the position of the person outside the bus is changing with time with respect to the person inside the bus.
