Exam 2 Flashcards
definition: forces that cause motion or are caused by motion
linear kinetics
example of linear kinetics
gravity, impact force,
Newtons laws: the basis of ______
mechanics
What is newtons first law of motion
the law of inertia: the body in motion stays in motion or at rest stays at rest unless acted on by an outside force
definition: the quantity of motion a body possesses (body must be moving)
momentum
what is the equation for momentum?
M = m x v
how does momentum change?
by changing mass or velocity
in absence of _____ ______, the total momentum of a given system remains constant
external forces
definition: objects in a head on collision bounce off each other. combined momentum is conserved
elastic collision
definition: objects in the collision stay together after the collision and move together with the same velocity. combined momentum is also conserved
inelastic (plastic) collision
what is Newtons second law?
law of acceleration: force applied to a body causes acceleration of that body of a magnitude proportional to the force, in the direction of the force, and inversely proportional to the body’s mass
what is the equation for newtons 2nd law of motion
F = m x a force = mass x acceleration
impulse is the product of _____ times ____
force times time
if an impulse acts on a system, it will change the ______ _____ of the system.
total momentum
landing in a relaxed rather than rigid manner allows reduction in ___ ____ on the joints by dissipating _____ over a long period of time.
impact forces; force
in impulse equations, what must mass be in ?
Kg
what is newtons third law?
law of action-reaction: for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
what is an example of newtons 3rd law?
ground reaction force
when one body exerts a force on a second, the second body exerts a _____ force that is _____ in magnitude and _____ in direction to the first body
reaction; equal; opposite
What is a common force we can use to our advantage?
Ground reaction force
Jumpers use ground reaction force to convert ______ velocity to ______ velocity
horizontal to vertical
runners can experience _____ due to GRF
injuries
GRF & ______ data can determine the amount of _____ at each joint
kinematic; force
when running, each time your foot hits the ground, ____ x your body weight is exerted through your lower extremity
2 - 3 x
