Group of answer choices

gravity

frame of reference

friction

Answer 1

Answer:

frame of reference

Explanation:

A frame of reference can be created after a reference point is chosen relative to the position of an object. For example, a person on a train car can seem to be moving, but it is actually the train car moving and the person is still. The person's position does not change. The frame of reference is the person on the train, which shows that the train is moving.
