In classical mechanics, accurate [[measurement]]s and [[prediction]]s of the state of objects can be calculated, such as [[Absolute location|location]] and [[velocity]]. In quantum mechanics, due to the [[uncertainty principle|Heisenberg uncertainty principle]], the complete state of a subatomic particle, such as its location and velocity, cannot be simultaneously determined. {{citation needed|date=June 2012}}

'{{Short description|Change in position of an object over time}} {{Other uses|Motion (disambiguation)}} [[File:Motor cycle stunt2 amk.jpg|thumb|A motorcyclist doing a [[wheelie]], with the background blur representing motion|300x300px]] In [[physics]], '''motion''' is the phenomenon in which an object changes its [[Position (geometry)|position]] over time. Motion is mathematically described in terms of [[Displacement (geometry)|displacement]], [[distance]], [[velocity]], [[acceleration]], [[speed]], and [[time]]. The motion of a body is observed by attaching a [[frame of reference]] to an observer and measuring the change in position of the body relative to that frame with change in time. The branch of physics describing the motion of objects without reference to its cause is [[kinematics]]; the branch studying forces and their effect on motion is [[dynamics (mechanics)|dynamics]]. If an object is not changing relatively to a given frame of reference, the object is said to be ''at rest'', ''motionless'', ''immobile'', ''[[wikt:stationary|stationary]]'', or to have a constant or [[time-invariant]] position with reference to its surroundings. As there is no absolute frame of reference, ''[[Absolute space and time|absolute motion]]'' cannot be determined.<ref>{{cite book|last=Wahlin|first=Lars|chapter=9.1 Relative and absolute motion |title=The Deadbeat Universe|year=1997|publisher=Coultron Research|location=Boulder, CO|isbn=978-0-933407-03-9|pages=121–129|chapter-url=http://www.colutron.com/download_files/chapt9.pdf |access-date=25 January 2013}}</ref> Thus, everything in the universe can be considered to be in motion.<ref name="Tyson">{{cite book|last=Tyson|first=Neil de Grasse|url=https://archive.org/details/oneuniverse00neil|title=One Universe : at home in the cosmos|author2=Charles Tsun-Chu Liu|author2-link=Charles Tsun-Chu Liu|author3=Robert Irion|publisher=[[National Academy Press]]|year=2000|isbn=978-0-309-06488-0|location=Washington, DC|url-access=registration}}</ref>{{rp|20–21}} Motion applies to various physical systems: to objects, bodies, matter particles, matter fields, radiation, radiation fields, radiation particles, curvature, and space-time. One can also speak of motion of images, shapes, and boundaries. So, the term motion, in general, signifies a continuous change in the positions or configuration of a physical system in space. For example, one can talk about the motion of a wave or the motion of a quantum particle, where the configuration consists of probabilities of the wave or particle occupying specific positions. ==Laws of motion== {{Main|Mechanics}} In physics, motion of {{plainlink|url=//en.wiktionary.org/wiki/massive#:~:text=(physics%2C%20of%20a%20particle)%20Possessing%20mass.|name=massive}} bodies is described through two related sets of [[scientific law|laws]] of mechanics. [[Classical mechanics]] for superatomic (larger than atomic) objects (such as [[car]]s, [[projectile]]s, [[planet]]s, [[Cell (biology)|cells]], and [[human]]s) and [[quantum mechanic]]s for [[atom]]ic and [[subatomic particle|sub-atomic]] objects (such as [[helium]], [[protons]] and [[electrons]]). Historically, Newton and Euler formulated three laws of classical mechanics: {| class="wikitable" |'''First law''': |In an [[inertial reference frame]], an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant [[velocity]], unless acted upon by a [[net force]]. |- |'''Second law''': |In an inertial reference frame, the vector [[Vector sum|sum]] of the [[forces]] '''F''' on an object is equal to the [[mass]] ''m'' of that object multiplied by the [[acceleration]] '''a''' of the object: '''F''' = ''m'''''a'''. If the resultant force '''F''' acting on a body or an object is not equal to zero, the body will have an acceleration '''a''' which is in the same direction as the resultant. <br /> |- |'''Third law''': |When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body. |} ===Classical mechanics=== {{Classical mechanics}} Classical mechanics is used for describing the motion of [[macroscopic]] objects, from [[projectiles]] to parts of [[machinery]], as well as [[astronomical objects]], such as [[spacecraft]], [[planets]], [[star]]s, and [[Galaxy|galaxies]]. It produces very accurate results within these domains, and is one of the oldest and largest scientific descriptions in [[science]], [[engineering]], and [[technology]]. Classical mechanics is fundamentally based on [[Newton's laws of motion]]. These laws describe the relationship between the forces acting on a body and the motion of that body. They were first compiled by [[Isaac Newton|Sir Isaac Newton]] in his work ''[[Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica]]'', first published on July 5, 1687. Newton's three laws are: # A [[Physical body|body]] at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion unless it is acted upon by an external force.<br>(This is known as the law of [[inertia]].) # Force is equal to the change in momentum ('''mv''') per change in time. For a constant mass, force equals mass times acceleration ('''F = ma'''). # For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.<br>i.e. whenever one body exerts a force '''F''' onto a second body, (in some cases, which is standing still) the second body exerts the force −'''F''' back onto the first body. '''F''' and −'''F''' are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. So, the body which exerts '''F''' will be pushed backwards.<ref>Newton's "Axioms or Laws of Motion" can be found in the "[[Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy|Principia]]" on [https://books.google.com/books?id=Tm0FAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA19#v=onepage&q=&f=false p. 19 of volume 1 of the 1729 translation].</ref> Newton's three laws of motion were the first to accurately provide a mathematical model for understanding [[orbit]]ing bodies in [[outer space]]. This explanation unified the motion of celestial bodies and motion of objects on earth. === Equations of Motion === {{tone|section=true|date=May 2021}} ; Translational motion In translational motion, the driving force ''F'' is counterbalanced by a resisting force ''F''r set up by the driven machine and by an inertia force ''Ma'' arising from the change in speed, or <math>\vec{F}-\vec{Fr}=M\vec{a}=M{\operatorname{d}\!\vec{v}\over\operatorname{d}\!\vec{t}}</math> (1) where the mass ''M'' is expressed in kg. the velocity ''v'' in m/sec, the acceleration ''a'' in m/sec2, and the force ''F'' in newtons (N).<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|title=Encyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology|publisher=Elsevier Science Ltd.|year=2001|isbn=978-0-12-227410-7}}</ref> ; Oscillatory motion A motion repeating itself is referred to as periodic or oscillatory motion. An object in such motion oscillates about an equilibrium position due to a restoring force or torque. Such force or torque tends to restore (return) the system toward its equilibrium position no matter in which direction the system is displaced.<ref>{{Cite book |title=Principles of Mechanics |chapter=Oscillatory Motion|series=Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation|year=2019|pages=155–171|url=https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-15195-9_10|publisher=Springer |location=Cham|doi=10.1007/978-3-030-15195-9_10|isbn=9783030151959|last1=Alrasheed|first1=Salma}}</ref> ;Rotational motion In rotational motion, the driving torque ''T''<sub>M</sub> (usually developed by the electric motor) is counterbalanced by a resisting torque ''T''<sub>L</sub> (usually developed by the load and referred to as the motor shaft) and by an inertia or dynamic torque ''J d''ω/''dt'', <math>T_M-T_L=J\operatorname{d}\!\omega/\operatorname{d}\!t </math> (2) where the inertia ''J'' is expressed in kg*m<sup>2</sup>. It is sometimes called flywheel torque or moment and ''T'' is the torque in N*m. The signs to be associated with ''T''<sub>M</sub> and ''T''<sub>L</sub> in Eq. (2) depend on the regime of operation of the driving motor and the nature of the load torque.<ref name=":0" /> '''Uniform Motion:''' When an object moves with a constant speed in a particular direction at regular intervals of time it is known as ''uniform motion.'' For example: a bike moving in a straight line with a constant speed. Here value of acceleration will be zero. Equations of Uniform Motion: If <math>\mathbf{v}</math> = final and initial velocity, <math>t</math> = time, and <math>\mathbf{s}</math> = displacement, then: :<math qid=Q376742> \mathbf{s} = \mathbf{v}t </math> (3) If <math>\mathbf{v}</math> is final velocity and <math>\mathbf{u}</math> is initial velocity, <math>\mathbf{a}</math> is acceleration throughout the time(<math>t</math>), and <math>\mathbf{s}</math> = displacement, then: <math> \mathbf{v} = \mathbf{u} + \mathbf{a}t </math> <math> \mathbf{s} = \mathbf{u}t + 1/2\mathbf{a}t</math><sup>2</sup> <math> \mathbf{v^2} - \mathbf{u^2} = 2\mathbf{a}s </math> '''Non-Uniform Motion:''' When an object moves with a different or variable velocity is called ''non-uniform motion'' at a regular time interval. And object covers different distances in an equal time interval. Here acceleration has a non-zero value. Example: A running horse. There are two types of Non-Uniform Motion with respect to acceleration: ''Uniformly accelerated non-uniform motion:'' When objects move with different velocities in an equal time interval and acceleration is constant throughout the time interval. This means the velocity of an object will change at a constant rate in a given time interval. Example:'' Free Fall of an object due to gravity(acceleration: due to gravity 9.8 m/s2 throughout the time interval).'' Here acceleration is non-zero but constant. ''Non-uniformly accelerated non-uniform motion:'' When objects move with different velocities in an equal time interval and acceleration is variable throughout the time interval. This means the velocity of an object will not change at a constant rate. Example:'' Driving a car with different velocities at different time intervals.'' Here acceleration is non-zero but variable. ===Relativistic mechanics=== Modern kinematics developed with study of [[electromagnetism]] and refers all velocities ''v'' to their ratio to [[speed of light]] ''c''. Velocity is then interpreted as [[rapidity]], the [[hyperbolic angle]] &phi; for which the [[hyperbolic tangent function]] tanh &phi; = ''v''/''c''. [[Acceleration]], the change of velocity, then changes rapidity according to [[Lorentz transformation]]s. This part of mechanics is [[special relativity]]. Efforts to incorporate [[gravity]] into relativistic mechanics were made by [[W. K. Clifford#Premonition of relativity|W. K. Clifford]] and [[Albert Einstein]]. The development used [[differential geometry]] to describe a curved universe with gravity; the study is called [[general relativity]]. ===Quantum mechanics=== {{Quantum mechanics}} [[Quantum mechanics]] is a set of principles describing [[Physical systems|physical reality]] at the atomic level of matter ([[molecule]]s and [[atom]]s) and the [[subatomic particle]]s ([[electron]]s, [[proton]]s, [[neutron]]s, and even smaller [[elementary particle]]s such as [[quark]]s).

Many of these "imperceptible motions" are only perceivable with the help of special tools and careful observation. The larger scales of imperceptible motions are difficult for humans to perceive for two reasons: [[Newton's laws of motion]] (particularly the third) which prevents the feeling of motion on a mass to which the observer is connected, and the lack of an obvious [[frame of reference]] which would allow individuals to easily see that they are moving.<ref>{{cite web|last=Safkan|first=Yasar|title=Question: If the term 'absolute motion' has no meaning, then why do we say that the earth moves around the sun and not vice versa?|url=http://www.physlink.com/education/askexperts/ae118.cfm|work=Ask the Experts|publisher=PhysLink.com|access-date=25 January 2014}}</ref> The smaller scales of these motions are too small to be detected conventionally with human [[sense]]s. ===Universe=== [[Spacetime]] (the fabric of the universe) is [[Metric expansion of space|expanding]], meaning everything in the [[universe]] is stretching, like a [[rubber band]].

The speed of light in vacuum is thus the upper limit for speed for all physical systems. In addition, the speed of light is an [[invariant (physics)|invariant]] quantity: it has the same value, irrespective of the position or speed of the observer.

'{{Short description|Change in position of an object over time}} {{Other uses|Motion (disambiguation)}} [[File:Motor cycle stunt2 amk.jpg|thumb|A motorcyclist doing a [[wheelie]], with the background blur representing motion|300x300px]] In [[physics]], '''motion''' is the phenomenon in which an object changes its [[Position (geometry)|position]] over time. Motion is mathematically described in terms of [[Displacement (geometry)|displacement]], [[distance]], [[velocity]], [[acceleration]], [[speed]], and [[time]]. The motion of a body is observed by attaching a [[frame of reference]] to an observer and measuring the change in position of the body relative to that frame with change in time. The branch of physics describing the motion of objects without reference to its cause is [[kinematics]]; the branch studying forces and their effect on motion is [[dynamics (mechanics)|dynamics]]. If an object is not changing relatively to a given frame of reference, the object is said to be ''at rest'', ''motionless'', ''immobile'', ''[[wikt:stationary|stationary]]'', or to have a constant or [[time-invariant]] position with reference to its surroundings. As there is no absolute frame of reference, ''[[Absolute space and time|absolute motion]]'' cannot be determined.<ref>{{cite book|last=Wahlin|first=Lars|chapter=9.1 Relative and absolute motion |title=The Deadbeat Universe|year=1997|publisher=Coultron Research|location=Boulder, CO|isbn=978-0-933407-03-9|pages=121–129|chapter-url=http://www.colutron.com/download_files/chapt9.pdf |access-date=25 January 2013}}</ref> Thus, everything in the universe can be considered to be in motion.<ref name="Tyson">{{cite book|last=Tyson|first=Neil de Grasse|url=https://archive.org/details/oneuniverse00neil|title=One Universe : at home in the cosmos|author2=Charles Tsun-Chu Liu|author2-link=Charles Tsun-Chu Liu|author3=Robert Irion|publisher=[[National Academy Press]]|year=2000|isbn=978-0-309-06488-0|location=Washington, DC|url-access=registration}}</ref>{{rp|20–21}} Motion applies to various physical systems: to objects, bodies, matter particles, matter fields, radiation, radiation fields, radiation particles, curvature, and space-time. One can also speak of motion of images, shapes, and boundaries. So, the term motion, in general, signifies a continuous change in the positions or configuration of a physical system in space. For example, one can talk about the motion of a wave or the motion of a quantum particle, where the configuration consists of probabilities of the wave or particle occupying specific positions. ==Laws of motion== {{Main|Mechanics}} In physics, motion of {{plainlink|url=//en.wiktionary.org/wiki/massive#:~:text=(physics%2C%20of%20a%20particle)%20Possessing%20mass.|name=massive}} bodies is described through two related sets of [[scientific law|laws]] of mechanics. [[Classical mechanics]] for superatomic (larger than atomic) objects (such as [[car]]s, [[projectile]]s, [[planet]]s, [[Cell (biology)|cells]], and [[human]]s) and [[quantum mechanic]]s for [[atom]]ic and [[subatomic particle|sub-atomic]] objects (such as [[helium]], [[protons]] and [[electrons]]). Historically, Newton and Euler formulated three laws of classical mechanics: {| class="wikitable" |'''First law''': |In an [[inertial reference frame]], an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant [[velocity]], unless acted upon by a [[net force]]. |- |'''Second law''': |In an inertial reference frame, the vector [[Vector sum|sum]] of the [[forces]] '''F''' on an object is equal to the [[mass]] ''m'' of that object multiplied by the [[acceleration]] '''a''' of the object: '''F''' = ''m'''''a'''. If the resultant force '''F''' acting on a body or an object is not equal to zero, the body will have an acceleration '''a''' which is in the same direction as the resultant. <br /> |- |'''Third law''': |When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body. |} ===Classical mechanics=== {{Classical mechanics}} Classical mechanics is used for describing the motion of [[macroscopic]] objects, from [[projectiles]] to parts of [[machinery]], as well as [[astronomical objects]], such as [[spacecraft]], [[planets]], [[star]]s, and [[Galaxy|galaxies]]. It produces very accurate results within these domains, and is one of the oldest and largest scientific descriptions in [[science]], [[engineering]], and [[technology]]. Classical mechanics is fundamentally based on [[Newton's laws of motion]]. These laws describe the relationship between the forces acting on a body and the motion of that body. They were first compiled by [[Isaac Newton|Sir Isaac Newton]] in his work ''[[Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica]]'', first published on July 5, 1687. Newton's three laws are: # A [[Physical body|body]] at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion unless it is acted upon by an external force.<br>(This is known as the law of [[inertia]].) # Force is equal to the change in momentum ('''mv''') per change in time. For a constant mass, force equals mass times acceleration ('''F = ma'''). # For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.<br>i.e. whenever one body exerts a force '''F''' onto a second body, (in some cases, which is standing still) the second body exerts the force −'''F''' back onto the first body. '''F''' and −'''F''' are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. So, the body which exerts '''F''' will be pushed backwards.<ref>Newton's "Axioms or Laws of Motion" can be found in the "[[Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy|Principia]]" on [https://books.google.com/books?id=Tm0FAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA19#v=onepage&q=&f=false p. 19 of volume 1 of the 1729 translation].</ref> Newton's three laws of motion were the first to accurately provide a mathematical model for understanding [[orbit]]ing bodies in [[outer space]]. This explanation unified the motion of celestial bodies and motion of objects on earth. === Equations of Motion === {{tone|section=true|date=May 2021}} ; Translational motion In translational motion, the driving force ''F'' is counterbalanced by a resisting force ''F''r set up by the driven machine and by an inertia force ''Ma'' arising from the change in speed, or <math>\vec{F}-\vec{Fr}=M\vec{a}=M{\operatorname{d}\!\vec{v}\over\operatorname{d}\!\vec{t}}</math> (1) where the mass ''M'' is expressed in kg. the velocity ''v'' in m/sec, the acceleration ''a'' in m/sec2, and the force ''F'' in newtons (N).<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|title=Encyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology|publisher=Elsevier Science Ltd.|year=2001|isbn=978-0-12-227410-7}}</ref> ; Oscillatory motion A motion repeating itself is referred to as periodic or oscillatory motion. An object in such motion oscillates about an equilibrium position due to a restoring force or torque. Such force or torque tends to restore (return) the system toward its equilibrium position no matter in which direction the system is displaced.<ref>{{Cite book |title=Principles of Mechanics |chapter=Oscillatory Motion|series=Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation|year=2019|pages=155–171|url=https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-15195-9_10|publisher=Springer |location=Cham|doi=10.1007/978-3-030-15195-9_10|isbn=9783030151959|last1=Alrasheed|first1=Salma}}</ref> ;Rotational motion In rotational motion, the driving torque ''T''<sub>M</sub> (usually developed by the electric motor) is counterbalanced by a resisting torque ''T''<sub>L</sub> (usually developed by the load and referred to as the motor shaft) and by an inertia or dynamic torque ''J d''ω/''dt'', <math>T_M-T_L=J\operatorname{d}\!\omega/\operatorname{d}\!t </math> (2) where the inertia ''J'' is expressed in kg*m<sup>2</sup>. It is sometimes called flywheel torque or moment and ''T'' is the torque in N*m. The signs to be associated with ''T''<sub>M</sub> and ''T''<sub>L</sub> in Eq. (2) depend on the regime of operation of the driving motor and the nature of the load torque.<ref name=":0" /> '''Uniform Motion:''' When an object moves with a constant speed in a particular direction at regular intervals of time it is known as ''uniform motion.'' For example: a bike moving in a straight line with a constant speed. Here value of acceleration will be zero. Equations of Uniform Motion: If <math>\mathbf{v}</math> = final and initial velocity, <math>t</math> = time, and <math>\mathbf{s}</math> = displacement, then: :<math qid=Q376742> \mathbf{s} = \mathbf{v}t </math> (3) If <math>\mathbf{v}</math> is final velocity and <math>\mathbf{u}</math> is initial velocity, <math>\mathbf{a}</math> is acceleration throughout the time(<math>t</math>), and <math>\mathbf{s}</math> = displacement, then: <math> \mathbf{v} = \mathbf{u} + \mathbf{a}t </math> <math> \mathbf{s} = \mathbf{u}t + 1/2\mathbf{a}t</math><sup>2</sup> <math> \mathbf{v^2} - \mathbf{u^2} = 2\mathbf{a}s </math> '''Non-Uniform Motion:''' When an object moves with a different or variable velocity is called ''non-uniform motion'' at a regular time interval. And object covers different distances in an equal time interval. Here acceleration has a non-zero value. Example: A running horse. There are two types of Non-Uniform Motion with respect to acceleration: ''Uniformly accelerated non-uniform motion:'' When objects move with different velocities in an equal time interval and acceleration is constant throughout the time interval. This means the velocity of an object will change at a constant rate in a given time interval. Example:'' Free Fall of an object due to gravity(acceleration: due to gravity 9.8 m/s2 throughout the time interval).'' Here acceleration is non-zero but constant. ''Non-uniformly accelerated non-uniform motion:'' When objects move with different velocities in an equal time interval and acceleration is variable throughout the time interval. This means the velocity of an object will not change at a constant rate. Example:'' Driving a car with different velocities at different time intervals.'' Here acceleration is non-zero but variable. ===Relativistic mechanics=== Modern kinematics developed with study of [[electromagnetism]] and refers all velocities ''v'' to their ratio to [[speed of light]] ''c''. Velocity is then interpreted as [[rapidity]], the [[hyperbolic angle]] &phi; for which the [[hyperbolic tangent function]] tanh &phi; = ''v''/''c''. [[Acceleration]], the change of velocity, then changes rapidity according to [[Lorentz transformation]]s. This part of mechanics is [[special relativity]]. Efforts to incorporate [[gravity]] into relativistic mechanics were made by [[W. K. Clifford#Premonition of relativity|W. K. Clifford]] and [[Albert Einstein]]. The development used [[differential geometry]] to describe a curved universe with gravity; the study is called [[general relativity]]. ===Quantum mechanics=== {{Quantum mechanics}} [[Quantum mechanics]] is a set of principles describing [[Physical systems|physical reality]] at the atomic level of matter ([[molecule]]s and [[atom]]s) and the [[subatomic particle]]s ([[electron]]s, [[proton]]s, [[neutron]]s, and even smaller [[elementary particle]]s such as [[quark]]s). These descriptions include the simultaneous wave-like and particle-like behavior of both [[matter]] and [[radiation]] energy as described in the [[wave–particle duality]].<ref>[https://feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/I_38.html The Feynman Lectures on Physics Vol. I Ch. 38: The Relation of Wave and Particle Viewpoints]</ref> In classical mechanics, accurate [[measurement]]s and [[prediction]]s of the state of objects can be calculated, such as [[Absolute location|location]] and [[velocity]].

Many of these "imperceptible motions" are only perceivable with the help of special tools and careful observation. The larger scales of imperceptible motions are difficult for humans to perceive for two reasons: [[Newton's laws of motion]] (particularly the third) which prevents the feeling of motion on a mass to which the observer is connected, and the lack of an obvious [[frame of reference]] which would allow individuals to easily see that they are moving.<ref>{{cite web|last=Safkan|first=Yasar|title=Question: If the term 'absolute motion' has no meaning, then why do we say that the earth moves around the sun and not vice versa?|url=http://www.physlink.com/education/askexperts/ae118.cfm|work=Ask the Experts|publisher=PhysLink.com|access-date=25 January 2014}}</ref> The smaller scales of these motions are too small to be detected conventionally with human [[sense]]s. ===Universe=== [[Spacetime]] (the fabric of the universe) is [[Metric expansion of space|expanding]], meaning everything in the [[universe]] is stretching, like a [[rubber band]].

Thus the [[molecule]]s and [[atom]]s which make up the human body are vibrating, colliding, and moving. This motion can be detected as temperature; higher temperatures, which represent greater [[kinetic energy]] in the particles, feel warm to humans who sense the thermal energy transferring from the object being touched to their nerves. Similarly, when lower temperature objects are touched, the senses perceive the transfer of heat away from the body as a feeling of cold.<ref>[http://www.colorado.edu/UCB/AcademicAffairs/ArtsSciences/physics/PhysicsInitiative/Physics2000/bec/temperature.html Temperature and BEC.] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071110174808/http://www.colorado.edu/UCB/AcademicAffairs/ArtsSciences/physics/PhysicsInitiative/Physics2000/bec/temperature.html |date=2007-11-10 }} Physics 2000: Colorado State University Physics Department</ref> ===Subatomic particles=== Within each atom, [[electron]]s exist in a region around the nucleus. This region is called the [[electron cloud]]. According to [[Bohr model|Bohr's model]] of the atom, electrons have a high [[Electron velocity|velocity]], and the larger the nucleus they are orbiting the faster they would need to move. If electrons 'move' about the electron cloud in strict paths the same way planets orbit the sun, then electrons would be required to do so at speeds which far exceed the speed of light. However, there is no reason that one must confine oneself to this strict conceptualization (that electrons move in paths the same way macroscopic objects do), rather one can conceptualize electrons to be 'particles' that capriciously exist within the bounds of the electron cloud.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/newton/askasci/1993/physics/PHY112.HTM|title=Classroom Resources |publisher= Argonne National Laboratory|work=anl.gov}}</ref> Inside the [[atomic nucleus]], the [[proton]]s and [[neutron]]s are also probably moving around due to the electrical repulsion of the protons and the presence of [[angular momentum]] of both particles.<ref>[http://www.lbl.gov/abc/wallchart/teachersguide/pdf/Chap02.pdf Chapter 2, Nuclear Science- A guide to the nuclear science wall chart. Berkley National Laboratory.]</ref> ==Light== {{Main|Speed of light}} Light moves at a speed of 299,792,458&nbsp;m/s, or {{convert|299792.458|km/s|mi/s}}, in a vacuum. The speed of light in vacuum (or ''c'') is also the speed of all [[massless particle]]s and associated [[field (physics)|fields]] in a vacuum, and it is the upper limit on the speed at which energy, matter, information or [[Causality (physics)|causation]] can travel. The speed of light in vacuum is thus the upper limit for speed for all physical systems. In addition, the speed of light is an [[invariant (physics)|invariant]] quantity: it has the same value, irrespective of the position or speed of the observer. This property makes the speed of light ''c'' a natural measurement unit for speed and a [[physical constant|fundamental constant]] of nature. ==Types of motion== * [[Simple harmonic motion]] – motion in which the body oscillates in such a way that the restoring force acting on it is directly proportional to the body's displacement. Mathematically Force is directly proportional to the negative of displacement. Negative sign signifies the restoring nature of the force. (e.g., that of a [[pendulum]]). * [[Linear motion]] – motion which follows a straight [[Line (geometry)|linear]] path, and whose [[displacement (vector)|displacement]] is exactly the same as its [[trajectory]]. [Also known as [[rectilinear motion]]] * [[Reciprocating motion|Reciprocal motion]] * [[Brownian motion]] (i.e. the random movement of particles) * [[Circular motion]] * [[Rotational motion|Rotatory motion]] – a motion about a fixed point. (e.g. [[Ferris wheel]]). * [[Curvilinear motion]] – It is defined as the motion along a curved path that may be planar or in three dimensions. * [[Rolling|Rolling motion]] – (as of the wheel of a bicycle) * [[Oscillatory]] – (swinging from side to side) * [[Vibration|Vibratory motion]] * Combination (or simultaneous) motions – Combination of two or more above listed motions * [[Projectile motion]] – uniform horizontal motion + vertical accelerated motion ==Fundamental motions== * [[Linear motion]] * [[Circular motion]] * [[Oscillation]] * [[Wave]] * [[Relative motion]] * [[Fundamental motions]] ==See also== {{Portal|Physics}} * {{Annotated link|Kinematics}} * {{Annotated link|Simple machines}} * {{Annotated link|Kinematic chain}} * {{Annotated link|Power (physics)|Power}} * {{Annotated link|Machine (mechanical)|Machine}} * {{Annotated link|Microswimmer}} * {{Annotated link|Motion (geometry)}} * {{Annotated link|Motion capture}} * {{Annotated link|Displacement (vector)|Displacement}} * {{Annotated link|Translatory motion}} ==References== {{Reflist}} ==External links== {{Wikiquote}} * [https://feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/I_08.html Feynman's lecture on motion] * {{Commons category-inline|Motion}} {{Kinematics}} {{Authority control}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Motion (Physics)}} [[Category:Motion (physics)| ]] [[Category:Mechanics]] [[Category:Physical phenomena]]'
