In addition to the Free (inertial) Motion of particles and masses of
matter; wending, weaving, in and out, around and in between the
centers of mass of other masses; weightlessly orbiting and free
falling in space, there is only one other kind:

Forced (accelerated} Motion; where particles and masses thereof are
not moving freely; because - according to the concept of
impenetrability - they obviously cannot easily and/or freely;
simultaneously occupy, penetrate and/or pass through other particles
and masses of matter.

Masses resting on Earth's surface are in a state of Forced
(accelerated) Motion in that they are being _decelerated_, and cannot
of themselves freely fall, or gravitate to their common center of
mass; Earth's center.
