Q

What is Newton’s first law?

A

“An object at rest tends to stay at rest and object in motion will tend to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.”

Q

What’s the formula for momentum?

A
P= M*V 
Momentum = mass x velocity ; a force acting upon an object to cause a displacement

Q

Is work a unit of power?

A

The amount of work you do per unit time is called power; displacement
Power = work/time
Power = force *velocity

16
Q

Define torque?

A

Force times distance turning something into a circle rotational motion; it is a measure of how much a force acting on an object causes that object to rotate

17
Q

Where does the center of gravity falls for a women or men?

A

For women is through the hips
For men 2” higher
W

18
Q

Decriibe a first class lever?

A

The fulcrum is between the load and effort

Examples (scissors, pliers, seesaw)

19
Q

Describe a 2nd class lever?

A

Fulcrum and effort at opposite ends and the load is somewhere between the two (wheelbarrow)

20
Q

Describe a 3rd class lever?

A

The fulcrum is at the end whereas the effort is in the middle
Examples: biceps

21
Q

The head is what order lever?

A

First order lever

22
Q

Standing on the toes is what type of lever?

A

2nd class lever

23
Q

What is limits of stability?

A

Balance platform if center of gravity fall from center of hip to the silhouette of the foot
It is stable if it falls on the outside
The base is unstable

24
Compression fx is most common in persons with wheelchair at the ?
Head of the femur
25
Define plasticity?
Bends and stays bend but doesn't break
26
Define elasticity?
An object bends but return to its original shape
27
If you are on a table in you jump down what keeps you from tearing the muscles in your lower leg?
Tendons they Are elastic like a rubber band or a spring
28
What causes a spiral fracture?
Twisting and rotation
29
What elastic material is under a tendon that protects the tendon?
Hyaline cartilage from touching the bone during motion
30
Are disc elastic?
Yes
31
When building an orthotic device across the knee where should the orthotic device be in relation to the knee?
Right over the center of rotation at the knee
32
Where is the fracture point?
At the end of the plastic region
33
Is bone very pLastic?
No it's elastic
34
Is a muscle a linear or non linear force generator?
Non linear
35
Which develop more coarse the long arrangement of fibers or the pinnate arrangements?
Pinnate muscles are stronger
