Dynamics (physics)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For dynamics as the mathematical analysis of the motion of bodies as a result of impressed forces, see Analytical dynamics.
In physics the term dynamics customarily refers to the time evolution of physical processes. These processes may be microscopic as in particle physics, kinetic theory, and chemical reactions,[1] or macroscopic as in the predictions of statistical mechanics and nonequilibrium thermodynamics.
