Motion is the action of changing location or position. The study of motion without regard to the forces or energies that may be involved is called kinematics. It is the simplest branch of mechanics. The branch of mechanics that deals with both motion and forces together is called dynamics and the study of forces in the absence of changes in motion or energy is called statics.

Discussion the spectrum of mechanics
Motion is the action of changing location or position. The study of motion without regard to the forces or energies that may be involved is called kinematics. It is the simplest branch of mechanics. The branch of mechanics that deals with both motion and forces together is called dynamics and the study of forces in the absence of changes in motion or energy is called statics.
Science Notes: Measuring Matter, Force, and Energy
Matter, force, and energy are common terms that have scientific meanings close to the common use of the words. Matter is the stuff of which everything is composed, and force is something that is capable of changing the motion of an object. Energy is a property that tells us how much work we can get out of the object that possesses that energy. In keeping with the fact that science is based on measurements and observations, all of these entities are
