Hello there! The study of motion is called kinematics.

kinematics: "The branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces that cause the motion."

An easy way to remember this: Kinetics is motion, kinematics is the study of motion. (This can be helpful in review; or if you need to know it on a test)

I hope this helps, and have a great day!
