Q

what are the 6 points to segmental interaction ?

A

-body parts move in a sequence to generate the largest force or acceleration possible
-movement starts with the largest strongest, slowest segments working through to the smallest and fastest resulting in summation of momentum
-the next segment begins to move as the preceding segment has reached maximum velocity
-the body needs to be well balanced to aid in the transfer of momentum across body segments
-follow through is important to prevent deceleration of the last segment and safe dissipation of force
-all forces are directed to the target

Q

what is laminar flow?

A

a type of fluid flow in which fluid moves smoothly in individual streams
more pressure
early seperation point

37
Q

what is the definition of Form Drag?

A

the resistance created by the pressure differential between the front and the back of an object moving through a fluid
-delaying seperation=decreased cross section

38
Q

what is the definition of boundary seperation layers?

A

the point at which the boundary layer of fluid passing over the body/ object separates the surface

39
Q

what is surface drag ?

A

the friction between the fluid and the surface of a moving object

40
Q

what is wave drag?

A

the resistance formed by the creation of waves at the point where water and air interact
this drag comes from the creation of waves as an object moves through water

41
Q

how to improve wave drag ?

A

-improve buoyancy
-making object more streamline
-improve technique
-boat craft will decrease wave drag

42
Q

what is Bernoulli’s principle ?

A

-the velocity of the fluid flow determines the pressure system
-pressure on one side of an object is inversly proportional to the velocity on the samme side of the object as the velocity of the fluid increases the pressure decreases

43
Q

how is torque effected?

A

force applied
length of moment arm
angle

44
Q

what is the magnus effect?

A
  • the pressure differential high on one side and low on the other creates lift force that causes the ball to move in the direction of the pressure differential
  • magnus force changes the flight of the ball due to spin while moving through air
