Solution

The correct option is B

Car is in motion


Explanation for the correct option:

(B) Car is in motion

Given data:

A car and a pole in which the position of the pole and a car changes in five minutes. We need to find the truth behind the car's state?

Definition and explanation

Motion: Motion is defined as the state in which the body is changing its position continuously with respect to its surroundings.

Rest: A body is said to be at rest if it doesn't change its position continuously with respect to the surroundings.

Here the car's position is continuously changing with respect to the pole.

Therefore, the car is said to be in motion as the data is clearly mentioned.
Hence, Option (B) is the correct answer.
