motion
| Process of moving; an object that is moving is said to be ‘in motion’. The speed at which an object is moving is often measured in metres per second (m/s) or kilometres per hour (kph). The motion of objects can be described using Newton's laws of motion. |
motion
| In music, the succession of notes of different pitch. The word is used only with an adjectival qualification: conjunct motion, a single part moving by steps of adjoining notes; contrary motion, two or more parts moving together in different directions; disjunct motion, a single part moving by larger than stepwise intervals; oblique motion, one part moving when another stands still; and similar motion, two or more parts moving together in the same direction. |
