Mechanics, also known as classical mechanics, is a natural science that studies the deformation of normal-sized objects under stress and the movement process with a speed much lower than the speed of light. Mechanics is the foundation of physics, astronomy and many engineering. The rational design of machinery, architecture, spacecraft and ships must be based on classical mechanics.

Mechanical movement is the most basic form of material movement. Mechanical movement, that is, mechanical movement, is the change of the position of matter in time and space, including movement, rotation, flow, deformation, vibration, fluctuation and diffusion. Balance or stillness is a special case. Other forms of material motion include thermal motion, electromagnetic motion, atom and its internal motion and chemical motion.

Force is the interaction between substances, and the change of mechanical motion state is caused by this interaction. The state of rest and motion is unchanged, which means that the force is balanced in a sense. Therefore, mechanics can be said to be the science of force and (mechanical) motion.
