The notion of dynamical system in classical mechanics is built starting from the trajectories on the configuration space. Classes of equivalent vector fields on tangent and cotangent bundles are obtained. This leads to a re-examination in detail of the meaning of the Hamiltonian and Lagrangian functions.
