motion cannot occur without
|
force
|
|
muscular system is source of
|
force in humans
|
|
two types of motion
|
linear motion
angular motion |
|
linear motion
|
motion along a line
-rectilinear motion -curvilinear motion |
|
rectilinear motion
|
motion along a straight line
|
|
curvilinear motion
|
motion along a curved line
|
|
linear displacement
|
distance that a system moves in a straight line
|
|
angular motion (rotary motion)
|
rotation around an axis
|
|
angular displacement
|
change in location of a rotating body
|
|
linear and angular are related
|
angular motion of the joints produces the linear motion of walking
|
|
displacement vs. distance
|
actual distance from original point vs. sum length of measurement traveled
|
|
Law 1 of motion
|
law of inertia
body in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by force. body at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by force. uniform motion = constant velocity forces impressed = external forces |
|
inertia
|
resistance to action or change
resistance to acceleration or deceleration |
|
the greater the mass of an object the greater the
|
inertia
more force needed to move it |
|
Law 2 of motion
|
law of acceleration
if a net external force is applied to an object then object will accelerate in direction of net external force and acceleration will be proportional to net external force and inversely proportional to its mass |
|
acceleration
|
rate of change in velocity
|
|
mass
|
the amount of matter in the body
|
|
1 newton is the
|
amount of force it takes to accelerate a 1kg object 1m/squared
F=ma net external force= mass * acceleration |
|
law 3 of motion
|
law of reaction
to every action there is always opposed an equal reaction; or, the mutual action of two bodies upon each other are always equal and directed to contrary parts action and reaction = force |
|
friction
|
force that results from the resistance between surfacs of two objects from moving upon one another
increased or decreased friction may be desired to run we need friction. to glide we need less friction |
|
static friction or kinetic friction
|
static= amount of friction between to objects at rest
kinetic= friction occurring between two objects that are sliding upon one another |
|
static friction
|
always greater than kinetic friction
|
|
max static friction depends on
|
normal reaction force and
coefficient of friction (nature of surfaces) |
|
coefficient of friction
|
indicates relative ease of sliding between two surfaces in contact (not describing a single surface)
|
|
factors of coefficient of friction
|
roughness/ hardness of surfaces
type of molecular interaction of surfaces |
|
normal reaction force =
|
force perpendicular to surface
|
|
kinetic friction
|
friction force generated between two surfaces in contat during motion
|
|
friction does not
|
depend on surface are (contact are)
usually wider objects just have greater weight |
|
balance
|
ability to control equilibrium, either static or dynamic
|
|
equilibrium -
|
state of zero acceleration where there is no change in the speed or direction of the body static or dynamic
|
|
static equilibrium
|
body is at rest or completely motionless
|
|
dynamic equilibrium
|
all applied and inertial forces actin gon the moving body are in balance, resulting in movement with unchanging speed or direction
|
|
to control equilibrium and achieve balance ....needs to be maximized
|
stability
|
|
stability is the
|
resistance to a change in the body's acceleration and disturbance of the body's equilibrium.
|
|
stability is enhanced by
|
determining body's center of gravity and appropriately changing it
|
|
center of gravity
|
point at which all of body's mass and weight are qually balanced or equally distributed in all directions
|
|
balance
|
imiportant in resting and moving bodies
|
|
maximizing stability and ultimately achieving balance
eight things |
1. Center of gravity falls on base of support
2. large base larger stability 3. greater weight = more balance 4. lower height of center of gravity = more balance 5. location of center of gravity in relation to the base of support 6. equilibrium may be enhanced by increaseing the friction between the body and the surfaces it contacts 7. rotation about an axis aids balance 8. kinesthetic physiological functions contribute to balance |
|
significant mechanical loads are generated and absorbed by
|
the tissues of the body
|
|
....forces may cause these loads
|
internal or external
|
|
internal forces (mechanical loading)
|
active force = muscle
passive force = inert tissue |
|
external forces (mechanical loading)
|
produced from outside the body and originate from gravity, inertia, or direct contact
|
|
better to absorb force
|
over larger aspects of our body
spreads absorption rate over a greater period of time |
|
tension =
compression= shear= bending= torsion= combined torsion and compression |
tension- pulling longitudinally
compression- pressing longitudinally shear- rub against (force directed parallel to a surface) bending- bending torsion- twisting in different directions combined - ...yeah |
