69
What are the 3 components of balance?

2. line of gravity
3. base of support
70
What is center of gravity?
The point at which weight is evenly distributed
71
What is ones line of gravity?
An imaginary line drawn vertically downwards from the center of gravity
72
what is an individuals base of support?
An imaginary area that surrounds the outside edge of the body when standing
73
what does is mean to be able to 'float'?
To float is to be able to maintain a stationary position on the water surface
74
Which 2 forces operate on an individuals ability to float? Which pulls the body downwards and which pushes the body upwards?
1. Buoyant force- pushes body upwards
| 2. Gravity- pulls the body downwards
75
what is the 'center of buoyancy?'
The center of the displaced water
76
what is fluid resistance?
The resistance that acts against a body as it moves through water
77
what are the 2 types of drag? explain each
1. Surface drag- concerned with clothing, helmets, shaved skin
2. Profile drag- concerned with the way someone positions their body
78
what does the magnus effect explain?
Explains the spin that is put on a ball
79
Explain how the body applies force
The body is able to apply forces to objects such as the ground to enable them to run faster, or to a tennis racquet to enable them to hit the ball harder.
80
Explain how the body absorbs force
When landing from a jump, the body absorbs the force by bending the knees.
When catching a ball, the arms bend and are bought back towards the body to absorb the force
81
Explain how the body applies force to objects of different weights
Objects of different weight need a different amount of force applied to them in order for them to go their appropriate distance.
82
What does newtons 1st law state?
"An objects remains at rest unless acted upon by an internal or external force"
83
What is an example of newtons 1st law in sport?
Your body will stay still unless acted on by the engagement of your muscles, tendons and bones.
84
What does newtons 2nd law state?
“The greater the mass of the object the greater the amount of force needed to accelerate the object.”
85
What is an example of newtons 2nd law in sport?
When hitting a tennis ball, the ball will move faster if the hit is stronger
86
What does newtons 3rd law state?
“For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction”
87
What is an example of newtons 3rd law in sport?
When someone runs, with each step they’re putting a force against the track so therefore the track is putting the same force out but against their foot, so it is then pushing them forwards.
