Study Notes

Motion

  • Motion occurs when an object changes its position with respect to a reference point over a given time.

Description of Motion

  • Mathematically described in terms of:
    • Displacement
    • Distance
    • Velocity
    • Acceleration
    • Speed
  • Measured with respect to a frame of reference and the change in position of the body over time.

Branches of Physics

Kinematics

  • Studies the motion of objects without considering their causes.
  • Focuses on describing the motion of objects.

Dynamics

  • Examines the effect of forces on motion.
  • Studies the causes of motion.
