The forces and their effects, while acting upon the machine part in motion are studied in

In which branch of theory of machines the forces and their effects, while acting upon the machine part in motion, are studied?

Options:

a. Kinematics
b. Kinetics
c. Dynamics
d. Statics

Correct Answer: c. Dynamics

Explanation:

The branch of theory of machines which deals with the forces and their effects, while acting upon a moving part of a machine, is called as dynamics. Whereas the statics is a branch of theory of machine which deals with the study of forces and their effects, while machine parts are in rest position.

Kinematics is also a branch of theory of machines which deals with the study of motion of bodies without considering the forces which are acting upon them. Displacement, velocity, acceleration are the variable which come under the branch kinematics. Kinetics is another branch of theory of machines which deals with the study of forces acting upon the parts of machine and their resultant motion.
