dynamics of rigid bodies

The dynamics of rigid bodies study how objects that don’t change shape move and rotate when forces act on them. It explains how forces cause acceleration, how mass resists change in motion, and how rotation depends on both the force applied and where it’s applied on the object. This involves understanding concepts like torque (rotational force), inertia (resistance to change), and angular acceleration (change in rotation). Overall, it provides a framework to predict and analyze the motion of solid objects in real-world situations, from machinery to vehicles, based on physics principles.
