1. Introduction to Kinematics
Kinematics is a branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of points, bodies,
and systems of bodies without considering the forces that cause them to move. It involves
concepts such as displacement, velocity, acceleration, and time.
2. Basic Concepts and Quantities
Kinematics involves several fundamental quantities that describe motion:
- Displacement: A vector quantity that refers to the change in position.
- Velocity: The rate of change of displacement with time.
- Acceleration: The rate of change of velocity with time.
- Time: A scalar quantity used to measure duration.
3. Types of Motion
Motion can be categorized into different types based on trajectory and the nature of
motion:
- Linear Motion
- Circular Motion
- Rotational Motion
- Oscillatory Motion
