About Mechanics
Mechanics is a branch of physics that deals with the motion of objects and the forces that cause that motion. Here are some key concepts:
- Kinematics: The description of motion without considering its causes
- Dynamics: The study of the relationship between forces and motion
- Energy: The capacity to do work, measured in joules
- Momentum: The product of an object's mass and velocity
Common Mechanics Formulas
Here are some essential formulas for mechanics calculations:
- Kinematic equations: v = u + at, s = ut + ½at², v² = u² + 2as
- Newton's Second Law: F = ma
- Friction: F_friction = μN
- Kinetic Energy: KE = ½mv²
- Work: W = Fd cosθ
- Momentum: p = mv
