Kinematics is a branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of points, bodies (objects), and systems of objects without considering the causes of that motion. It is concerned with the description of motion, including displacement, velocity, and acceleration, and how these quantities relate to each other and to time. It essentially deals with the geometry of motion.
Kinematics is the study of
