Kinematics vs Dynamics
Kinematics – describe the motion of an object by answering the questions:
✓ When?
✓ Where?
✓ How fast?
✓ How far?
✓ How long?

❖ The net force can also be expressed in terms of
its components
𝑭𝐧𝐞𝐭 = 𝑭𝒙 + 𝑭𝒚 + 𝑭𝒛
Friction force
the opposing force
exerted parallel to the
surface of contact. It is

Dynamics of Accelerating Bodies
3. If several bodies are involved, draw a FBD for each body separately.
4. Resolve the force vectors into components.
5. Apply Newton’s Laws of Motion to each component of separately.
