This group gathers theorems of classical mechanics, the mathematics of the motion of particles and rigid bodies under forces. It covers conservation laws that follow from symmetry, results on orbits and central forces, the motion and moments of inertia of rigid bodies, the kinematics of displacement, and gravitational shell arguments. A theorem belongs here when its cited article places it in classical mechanics, kinematics or the dynamics of particles and bodies.
