Flashcards

Mechanics

Study of motion of bodies under forces, including when bodies are at rest.

Kinematics

Describes motion (points, bodies, systems) without considering the forces causing the movement.

Dynamics

Study of forces and their effect on motion.

Newton's First Law

Object at rest stays at rest, object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by force.
