    It is simply that 0 Kelvin is the absence of all heat. So nothing can get colder.

    exactly, 'cold' = absence of heat
    when heat gets to '0', the temperature is 0 K as all molecular motion stops.
    You can't get a slower molecular speed of vibration/movement than 0

      Just the same as dark = absence of light

      Position = absence of volocity

      etc

          well, position and velocity are a little complicated, since you have to fix a frame of reference,
          you could sit still in a train going at 60km/h

            That is true, it is all relative. Also both position and velocity do exist and can be measured just not at the same time. Whereas dark and cold do not

              exactly, temperature, light intensity are both scalars, whereas velocity is a vector, hence the need for a frame of reference

                Thank you for that. I wasn't thinking when I included velocity
