Movement is the action and effect of moving or moving. In physics, it is considered as the change in position that a body or object experiences with respect to a reference point in a given time.
Moving bodies or objects are called mobiles. If an object is not changing position over time, with respect to a certain reference point, we say that the object is at rest.
For example, the bus is a body in motion, while any object or person riding on it can be considered at rest, both with respect to the bus itself, as well as other objects and people who travel on it.
The following elements are found in every movement: the mobile or body that moves, the trajectory or path that the mobile travels, the space or distance traveled, and the time the mobile spends traveling through space.
According to the trajectory, the movement can be rectilinear (a car moving along the road), and curvilinear. The latter can be circular (the tip of the needle of a clock, the lead of the compass), parabolic (the movement of the basketball ball, the water jet in the fountain) and elliptical (the planets around the Sun, the electrons around the nucleus of the atom).
There are other types of movement such as oscillatory (the pendulum of a clock, trapezoids or swings) and wave (movement when throwing a stone into a well or placing a finger in a container of water).
In the field of music, movement is the term used to describe the sections of an extensive musical composition, generally of an instrumental nature (such as a symphony, a sonata or a suite). Musical movement is also understood as a musical style.
In medicine it refers to the movement that the body makes, it can be voluntary movement, it occurs only when one wants (running, jumping, taking an object, etc.) and involuntary movement, it occurs without one being able to control it (heart beating, blink, etc.).
Another definition we have of the movement is the set of artistic, ideological or cultural manifestations of a certain time. For example: Greco-Roman movement, Baroque movement, Renaissance movement, among others.
