Kinematics
\Kin`e*mat"ics\, n. [Gr. (?),(?) motion, fr. kinei^n
to move.] (Physics)
The science which treats of motions considered in themselves,
or apart from their causes; the comparison and relation of
motions.
[1913 Webster]
Note: Kinematics forms properly an introduction to mechanics,
as involving the mathematical principles which are to
be applied to its data of forces. --Nichol.
