Dynamics is the branch of physics that describes the evolution over time of a physical system in relation to the motives or causes that cause changes in physical state and/or state of motion. The objective of dynamics is to describe the factors capable of producing alterations in a physical system, to quantify them and to propose equations of motion or equations of evolution for that system of operation. The study of dynamics is prominent in mechanical systems; but also in thermodynamics and electrodynamics. This article describes the main aspects of dynamics in mechanical systems, and reserves for other articles the study of dynamics in non-mechanical systems, work and energy.

In other scientific fields such as economics or biology, it is also common to speak of dynamics in a sense similar to that of physics, to refer to the characteristics of the evolution over time of the state of a given system.
