Q

Machine provide mechanical advantage : What are they?

A

Can apply a relatively small force to move a greater resistance

Move one point of an object a small distance to result in a large amount of movement of another point of the object

third class lever

22
Q

examples of third class lever.

requries a great deal of force to move a small resisitance

A

paddling and shoveling

23
Q

what is the most common third class lever in the human body?

A

Biceps brachi; flexing elbow

24
Q 
example : Biceps Brachii flexing elbow
Axis= 
Force= 
Resistance=
Results in moving forearm
A

Elbow joint
applied by biceps brachii at its insertion on radius
Resistance=weight of arm, additional objects
Results in moving forearm

25
Q

Moment of force, or the turning effect of an eccentric force

A

torque

26
Q

force applied off center
Applied force not in line with object’s center of gravity
Causes rotation
Contracting muscles apply eccentric forces to the bone on which it attaches, causing the bone to rotate about the axis (joint)

A

eccentric force

27
Q

Distance between the axis and the point of resistance application

A

resistance arm

28
Q

What is the lever equation?

A

force x force arm = resistance x resistance arm

29
Q

Know how to perfrom math calc

A

refer to ppt

30
Q

Human leverage system is built for …

A

speed and range of motion at the expense of force

31
Q

A single…..changes effective direction of force application

A

pulley

32
Q

What law is thisA body in motion tends to remain in motion at the same speed in a straight line unless acted on by a force

A

newton law of interia

33
Q

A body in….. tends to remain in ….. at the same …. in a straight line unless acted on by a ….

A

motion; motion; speed; force.

34
Q

Muscles produce force to …

A

start, stop, accelerate, deecerlate, and change the direction of moton

35
Q

the rate of change in velocity

A

accelration

36
Q

A change in the acceleration of a body occurs in the same direction as the force that caused it

A

newton law of accelation

37
Q

The change in acceleration is directly proportional to the …. causing it and inversely proportional to the …..

A

force ; mass of the body

38
Q

For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction

A

Newton law of reaction
