Point mechanics is the kinematic or dynamic study of the motion of material points. Kinematics allows us to study the relationships between the parameters of motion (position, velocity, acceleration, etc.), while dynamics allows us to predict the evolution of these parameters by knowing the causes of motion. These can be contact interactions such as friction and thrust, or distance interactions such as gravitational attraction and electromagnetic interactions. All these interactions are modeled by a single physical object: the force. Thus, by knowing the force experienced by the material point at any moment, it is possible to predict the motion.
