DYNAMICS (PHYSICS)

(Redirected from Dynamics (mechanics))
In physics, 'dynamics' is the branch of classical mechanics that is concerned with the effects of forces on the motion of objects. The former distinguishes it from kinematics and the latter distinguishes it from statics. In quantum physics, dynamics may refer to how forces are quantized, as in quantum electrodynamics or quantum chromodynamics.
