The answer depends on how the body is moving:
For example, the equation for a body moving in simple harmonic motion is
d2y/dx2 = -w2*x

Newton's equation of cooling is a differential equation. If K is the temperature of a body at time t, then dK/dt = -r*(K - Kamb) where Kamb is the temperature of the surrounding, and r is a positive constant.
the body is in accelerated motion.
Rotational motion is rotation of a body about its center of mass.
I. Aristotle's Theory of Motion • Two basic principles: I. No motion without a mover in contact with moving body. II. Distinction between: (a) Natural motion: mover is internal to moving body (b) Forced motion: mover is external to moving body
The absolute value of the distance "crest to trough" perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the motion.
