Dynamics vs. Kinetics

Dynamicsnoun

(mechanics) The branch of mechanics that is concerned with the effects of forces on the motion of objects.

Dynamicsnoun

(music) The volume of the sound, such as piano, mezzo piano, mezzo forte, and forte.

Dynamicsnoun

That branch of mechanics which treats of the motion of bodies (Kinematics) and the action of forces in producing or changing their motion (kinetics). Dynamics is held by some recent writers to include statics and not kinematics.

Dynamicsnoun

Dynamicsnoun

That department of musical science which relates to, or treats of, the power of tones.

Dynamicsnoun

the branch of mechanics concerned with the forces that cause motions of bodies

Kineticsnoun

(physics) The branch of mechanics concerned with motion of objects, as well as the reason i.e. the forces acting on such bodies. This, along with kinematics constitute dynamics, which is concerned purely with the effects of forces on moving bodies.

Kineticsnoun

(chemistry) The branch of chemistry that is concerned with the rates of chemical reactions.

Kineticsnoun

See Dynamics.
