Three primary external forces #1 Fluid Forces
Occur in air or liquids
same principles apply to both and include Buoyancy, drag, lift
Increased velocity increases affects of lift and drag
Three primary external forces #2 contact forces
Occurs when one object comes in contact with another object
example friction and normal reaction
Three primary external forces #3Gravity
Measured as a weight of body through its COG
buoyancy
Upward force equal to weight of displaced air or fluid
Drag
Resistance to forward motion
Lift
Change influid pressure caused by differences in Flovelocity around an object
Lift is vertical
Normal reaction
Forces must be paired
must be opposite each other
Example action; child pulling down on bar, reaction; bar pulling up on child
Friction
Force acting in opposite direction to desired movement
Can enhance or hinder movement
Mass
Quantity of matter contained in an object
WEIGHT
Amount of gravitational force exerted on a body or object
Objects COG;
Point out which the mass of a body or object is evenly distributed
Vertical line of gravity
Imaginary line that bisects body in Saggital plane beginning at head and continuing thru the COG
must fall between feet for balance/stability
______ Is a vector quantity.
Force
Force must have what?
Magnitude and direction
Linear
Straight path
Rotary
Occurs around an axis
Point of application of force through COG…
Linear movement
Point of application of force elsewhere…
Rotary movement
Combinations of linear and rotary movements occur together for what?
Most functional human movements
