🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between true motion and relative motion radar displays • What it means when the ship's marker moves but land echoes stay fixed on the PPI (plan position indicator) • How stabilization and orientation (head-up, north-up) affect what moves on the screen

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: in this situation, which appears to be moving on the screen – your own ship, the land, or other targets? How does that relate to true vs relative motion? • Consider: does the question describe anything about the picture being aligned with the ship’s head, north, or off-center, or is it mainly about what is moving and what is fixed? • Look at each choice and match it to a radar concept: which term describes the way targets move on the screen, and which describe where the own-ship is placed or how the display is oriented?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on whether land masses should move or stay fixed in a true motion display • Separate terms that describe motion type (true vs relative) from those that describe orientation/centering (head-up, off-center, stabilized) • Verify which display type is defined as: "own ship moves on a fixed geographic background" before choosing your answer
