Motion


Definition:

  • (n.) The act, process, or state of changing place or position; movement; the passing of a body from one place or position to another, whether voluntary or involuntary; -- opposed to rest.

  • (n.) Movement of the mind, desires, or passions; mental act, or impulse to any action; internal activity.
  • (n.) A proposal or suggestion looking to action or progress; esp., a formal proposal made in a deliberative assembly; as, a motion to adjourn.
  • (n.) An application made to a court or judge orally in open court. Its object is to obtain an order or rule directing some act to be done in favor of the applicant.
  • (n.) Change of pitch in successive sounds, whether in the same part or in groups of parts.
  • (n.) A puppet show or puppet.
  • (v. i.) To make a significant movement or gesture, as with the hand; as, to motion to one to take a seat.
  • (v. i.) To make proposal; to offer plans.
  • (v. t.) To direct or invite by a motion, as of the hand or head; as, to motion one to a seat.
  • (v. t.) To propose; to move.

Example Sentences:

  • (2) A triphasic pattern was evident for the neck moments including a small phase which represented a seating of the headform on the nodding blocks of the uppermost ATD neck segment, and two larger phases of opposite polarity which represented the motion of the head relative to the trunk during the first 350 ms after impact.
  • (3) Based on our results, we propose the following hypotheses for the neurochemical mechanisms of motion sickness: (1) the histaminergic neuron system is involved in the signs and symptoms of motion sickness, including vomiting; (2) the acetylcholinergic neuron system is involved in the processes of habituation to motion sickness, including neural store mechanisms; and (3) the catecholaminergic neuron system in the brain stem is not related to the development of motion sickness.
