Solution

The correct option is B False

Absolute motion:

  1. Absolute motion is the state of motion in which a body tends to be in the stationary state or in the state of motion relative to all the frames of reference.
  2. Absolute motion is not possible in nature as there is no point that can be taken in the state of absolute rest respective to another.
  3. For example, If two bodies are in motion with respect to each other, at the same time they can be in a state of rest with another frame of reference.
  4. Sun will also be not considered at absolute rest because when we look at the sun from the Earth it seems to move from East to West.

Hence, the given statement is false.
