Mobile (physical)


In the physical sphere, mobile is understood as the object in motion from which one wishes to study its trajectory or the forces that accompany it.

This concept has a special interest in dynamics and kinematics, given that the object of the study is precisely a mobile object. In order to simplify its study, sometimes the mobile is reduced to a theoretical point where the whole mass is concentrated and on which the forces intervene and which moves within a system. If this simplification is not made and the mobile is a three-dimensional object, we can also consider studying rotation movements on its center of gravity.
