It is a state in which the body continuously changes its position with respect to time with respect to a reference point is known as the state of motion.
It is a relative state, nothing is in an absolute state of rest or in a state of motion.
We have to check it with a reference point.
For Example-
A train starts to move from a platform.
In this case train is changes its position with respect to the platform
So we can say it is in motion but on the other hand ,the passengers sitting inside the train do not change their position with respect to the train so they are at rest.
