Motion
What is motion? The flying of a bird in volves definite ways of moving. The rolling of a space capsule through space involves certain kinds of motion. A leaf falling from a tree on a windy day moves in certain ways. When a stone is dropped, it moves in a quick, downward motion. These are just a few examples of motion. All these motions can be described as an object's change of position. Yet, not one of these motions is exactly like any other of these motions. In fact, the number of different ways in which objects move is unlimited.
