dynamics, plural;
  1. The branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of bodies under the action of forces

  2. The branch of any science in which forces or changes are considered
    • - chemical dynamics
  3. The forces or properties that stimulate growth, development, or change within a system or process
    • - the dynamics of changing social relations
  4. The varying levels of volume of sound in different parts of a musical performance


  1. the branch of mechanics concerned with the forces that cause motions of bodies
  2. (dynamical) dynamic: characterized by action or forcefulness or force of personality; "a dynamic market"; "a dynamic speaker"; "the dynamic president of the firm"
  3. In the field of physics, the study of the causes of motion and changes in motion is dynamics. In other words the study of forces and why objects are in motion. Dynamics includes the study of the effect of torques on motion. ...
  4. In music, dynamics normally refers to the volume of a sound or note, but can also refer to every aspect of the execution of a given piece, either stylistic (staccato, legato etc.) or functional (velocity). ...
  5. The Dynamics were an American R&B group from Detroit, Michigan.
  6. The dynamical system concept is a mathematical formalization for any fixed "rule" which describes the time dependence of a point's position in its ambient space. ...
  7. Dynamicism, also termed the dynamic hypothesis or the dynamic hypothesis in cognitive science or dynamic cognition, is a new approach in cognitive science exemplified by the work of philosopher Tim van Gelder. ...
  8. [or Terrestrial Dynamical Time, TDT] ‘scientific time’ – it superseded ephemeris time in 1984, and is based on a uniform scale of time derived from atomic clocks (i.e. not subject to fluctuations in the Earth’s rate of rotation).  Now usually called international atomic time (TAI).
  9. the eight urges, drives or impulses of life.
  10. The variations of soft and loud singing in a given song.
  11. A term that indicates the degree of loudness or softness in music. When the dynamic level is changed instantaneously, it is called terraced or changed dynamics (this was popular during the Baroque period). ...
  12. Dynamics is distinguished from kinematics by explicit specification of applied forces/torques and body mass properties. ...
  13. The degrees of volume (loudness and softness) in music. Also the words, abbreviations, and symbols used to indicate degrees of volume. Piano (soft) and forte (loud) are most common.
  14. Generally, any forces that produce motion or affect change. In operational meteorology, dynamics usually refer specifically to those forces that produce vertical motion in the atmosphere.
  15. Branch of mechanics which deals with the various forces encountered on a coaster ride.
  16. symbols that indicate a change in volume of a song. (The students played the music louder and softer, as indicated by the dynamics written on the music.)
  17. The study of motion resulting from forces acting on an object; the energetic output with which one performs a movement.
  18. playing soft to loud on the drums.
  19. Either loud or louder (volume).
  20. Degrees of loudness or softness in a musical performance.
  21. A branch of mechanics that deals with forces and their relations to patterns of motion. In metorology, this relates especially to wind and water patterns.
  22. That phase of mechanics that deals with the motion of material bodies taking place under different, specific conditions.
  23. Loudness; often referring to variations in loudness
  24. The biomechanical aspects of the human body in motion.
  25. The degrees of softness or loudness in music indicated by signs or words on the score. The most important dynamic signs: pianissimo (pp): very soft, piano (p): soft, mezzo piano (mp): moderately soft, mezzo forte (mf): moderately loud, forte (f): loud, fortissimo (ff): very loud.
