Question
imagine a car moving down a street. from which reference point would the street appear to be moving?
a. from the street
b. from the sidewalk
c. from the sky
d. from the car
When an object is in motion, its motion is relative to a reference point. If we consider the car as the reference point (assuming the car is moving), the street would appear to be moving in the opposite direction. For example, if you are in a moving car, the road outside seems to move backward. A reference point is a fixed point used to determine the motion of an object. If the reference point is on the street (A), the street is stationary. If the reference point is on the sidewalk (B), the street is also stationary. If the reference point is in the sky (C), the street's apparent motion is not as directly related as when the reference point is in the moving car.
