Lecture 3 Flashcards

When does equilibrium happen?
this exist when object are at rest where all the F acting upon a body are balanced
What is a lever
- simple machine
- elongated, ridig object
- rotates around fixed point ( axis)
- has ability to change sped, distance, direction of applied force, force strength
What is an effort of a lever
this is a force applied to one point
what is a resistance
this is the load located at some other point
what is the effort arm
part of the lever from axis to point of effort or F
what is the resistance arm
part of lever from axis to point of resistance or load
when will movement happen?
this will occur when effort exceeds resistance
What is a 1st class lever
effort —–axis—— load
- axis is always in the middle
- can create a balance
- see saw
what is a 2nd class lever
axis——load——-effort
- the lad will also be closer to the axis
- will over come a large resistance
- wheel barrow
what is a 3rd class lever
axis—-effort—– load
- effor arm will always be shorter than load arm
- ↑ ROM and ↑ speed
- your arm
- the most in the human body
what is dynamic equilibrium
bodies in motion with all acting forces resulting in equal and oppositely directed inertial f
- sum F(x) -ma(x)=0
- sum F(y) -ma(y)=0
- sum T(G) - ix=0
what is stability
resistance to both linear and angular acceleration. so basically resistance to disruption of equilibrium
what is balance
ability to control equilibrium
what is center of gravity
the point aroudn which a body weight is equally balanced in all direction
what is the line of gravity
vector from the COG vertically downward toward the center of the earth
what is the base of support
area bound by the outermost regions of contact between a body and the support surface
(if your line of gravity in the base of support you will be stable)
what can increase a bodys stability
↑ body mass
↑ Fr btwn the body and the surface of contact
↑ the size of the bos in the direction of an external force
-horizontally position the COG near the edge of the BOS on the side of the external force
-vertically positioning the COG as low as possible
what is stress
external force on body are resisted by internal forces
what is strain
external forces that caused deformation of tissue
-deformation will all depend on the tissue
what is Tension
occur at analysis plane and result of force that tends to pull apart molecules that bond object together
- act L to analysis plane
- Stress= F/A
What is compression
axial stress that tends to push molecules together
what is shear
this act parallel to analysis plane
- tends to slide molecule past each other
what is bending
this will produce different stresses at analysis plan
- will have deformation by curving
- tension on the elongating side
- compression on the shorten side
what is torsion
occurs when torques act about the long axis of an object and has shear force btwn molecule of left/ right side of analysis plane
