Answer» Explanation: Q1 In physics, rest is the state an object being stationary relative to a particular frame of reference or another object; when the position of a body with respect to its surroundings does not change with TIME it is said to be "at rest". Q2 . Movement of any object from one position to another position with respect to the observer is called as Motion. Q3 . Velocity is the speed of an object MOVING in a definite direction. The SI unit of velocity is also metre per second. Velocity is a vector quantity; it has both magnitude and direction. Q4 . Speed : (i) Speed is DEFINED as the distance travelled by the body per unit time . (II) speed is a scalar value . (iii) The SI unit of speed is the metre per second . Velocity : (i) Velocity of a moving body is defined as is rate of change of its position with time in a particular direction . (ii)Velocity is a vector quantity . (iii) The SI (metric system) as metres per second (m/s) or as the SI base unit of (m⋅s−1). |
