Mechanics is a branch of physics which deals with behaviour of an object.Mechanics is classified to kinematics and dynamics.Kinematics deals with how objects move? and Dynamics deals with why objects move?.Kinematics is further divided into translational motion and rotational motion . Translational motion deals with change of position and rotational motion deals with motion around an axis . Translational motion is further grouped into one,two and three dimensional motion.Now let me discuss about one dimensional motion An object is said to be in motion if its position changes with time.... Hence motion in one dimension means change of position with time only along a particular direction i.e.,only along single dimension.It may be noted that all straight line motion is not one dimensional motion but a straight line motion may be one dimensional motion.
