Best Kinematics Courses
A branch of classical mechanics, kinematics is concerned with the mathematical description of motion in terms of velocity, acceleration, displacement and time. It represents the trajectories of objects through equations and graphs. It differs from kinetics in that it doesn’t consider the force behind the motion. Study our free kinematics courses to progress in areas from astronomy to robotics and mechanical engineering....…Read More
