    • Biology is the scientific study of living things.
    • Physics is the study of matter and energy and their interactions.
      • Mechanics is the branch of physics dealing with the motions of material bodies, including kinematics, dynamics, and statics.
        • Kinematics the branch of mechanics concerned with motion without reference to force or mass.
        • Dynamics is the study of the relationship between motion and the forces affecting motion.
        • Statics is the branch of physics concerned with bodies, static or at rest, upon which balanced forces act.

This page gives links to notes on an 80 hour mechanics course which I taught to 17 year old students from 2000 to 2005.

There is a good set of 52 physics videos from Fuse School HERE, mostly lasting between 3 and 4 minutes. The level is a bit low for this class.
