calculate weight
F=ma
Newtons first law
object rest stays at rest until force acts on it
Newtons second law
F=ma
Newtons 3rd law
every force has equal but opp force acting for every action equal but opposite reaction
5 types mechnical loads/forces
compression, tension, bending, torque, friction
compression
2 forces either side object
tension
2 forces pulling either side object
bending
compression inside tension outside
torque
force against and around fixed location
friction
force between 2 objects like trying slide object across another
biomechanics
analysis of mechanical systems of humans.. application principal mechanics (analysis action forces on moving things) to living things
kinetics
action of forces looking at forces and how it acts (force comes from muscle humans energy atp to generate that force force muscle exert force on limb which exerts force on outside environement)
kinematics
study of motion with respect to space and time (velocity, speeding up, slowing down)
kinesiology
study human movement
Normal force if flat on ground
weight of objects
normal force if at angle
portion weight perpendicular to slope
center of mass
point in body where mass equally distributed.. balance pint
center of gravity
affect due to acceleration of gravity on your COM
rectilinear motion
straight line
angular motion
fixed axis and attached object rotates around
curvilinear motion
motion in a curved line
distance
total distance traveled from point A to B
displacement
straight line form A to B how far from one to other traveled
Speed
distance/time m/s
