Chapter 11:Kinematics of paricles

Dynamics: Deals with objects moving with an accelerated motion.
It's concerned with the equilibrium of these objects.

Kinematics: It relates position, displacement, velocity, acceleration, and time.

Rectilinear motion of particles.
A particle is in rectilinear if it is moving along a straight line.
*Position: Xp: position coordinate of the particle
: algebraic scalar
rp: position vector
*Displacement:
