This document provides an overview of biomechanics and its key concepts. It defines biomechanics as the application of mechanics to the human body and sporting implements. It discusses the studies of kinematics (motion) and kinetics (forces). It also defines and compares linear motion, angular motion, and general motion. Additionally, it covers scalar and vector quantities, and explores concepts like distance, displacement, speed, velocity, acceleration, and forces. Examples are provided to illustrate biomechanical principles in sports.
