Rectilinear Motion of Particles - Review

It is concerned with the geometrically possible motion of a body or system of bodies without consideration of the forces involved.

• Statics

• Dynamics

• Kinetics

• Kinematics

It is the study of the motion in space of one or several bodies in which deformation is neglected.
