Kinematics is the study of the motion of points, objects, and groups of objects without considering the causes of its motion.The study of kinematics can be abstracted into purely mathematical expressions. Kinematic equations can be used to calculate various aspects of motion, such as velocity, acceleration, displacement, and time.

Objects are in motion all around us. Everything from a tennis match to a space-probe flyby of the planet Neptune involves motion.When you are resting, your heart moves blood through your veins. Even in inanimate objects, there is continuous motion in the vibrations of atoms and molecules.
