Best Answer

Mechanics is the study of the interactions between matter and the forces acting on it. Mechanics is divided into three, namely, statics, dynamics and kinematics.

Dynamics is the branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of the bodies under the action of forces.

statics - no change of momentum

dynamics - change of momentum

kinematics - force is not concerned

What is the difference between hydraulic and pneumatic symbols?

It all comes under Fluid dynamics/mechanics, and it's the same set of symbols for circuits. Many hydraulic symbols will include a drain to the tank. Pneumatic circuits use the atmosphere as their "tank".
