What's the difference between mobile and recalcitrant?

Mobile


Definition:

  • (a.) Capable of being moved; not fixed in place or condition; movable.
  • (a.) Characterized by an extreme degree of fluidity; moving or flowing with great freedom; as, benzine and mercury are mobile liquids; -- opposed to viscous, viscoidal, or oily.

  • (a.) The mob; the populace.

Recalcitrant


Definition:

  • (a.) Kicking back; recalcitrating; hence, showing repugnance or opposition; refractory.

Example Sentences:
