Exam 1 Flashcards
Define kinematic analysis?
no forces just describes motion
define kinetic analysis?
determines force
what is a rotary component?
perpendicular to the level at the Point of application
what does the rotary component create?
torque
which direction is the arrow going for a compressive force?
toward the joint
which direction is the arrow going for a tensile force?
away from the joint
What is newtons first law?
an object will remain at rest or in motion unless acted on
what is newtons second law?
a= F/m
what is newtons third law?
every reaction has an equal and opposite reaction
What is momentum?
quantity of motion possessed by an object
what is the equation for momentum?
P=mv
as angular velocity increases what happens to inertia?
decreases
where is the fulcrum related to EA and RA for a first class level?
in the middle
where is the fulcrum in relation to EA and RA for a second class lever?
Fulcrum–> RA–> EA
where is the fulcrum in relation to EA and RA for a third class lever?
fulcrum- EA- RA
what is the benefit of a second class lever?
favors power and is very efficient
what is the benefit of a third class lever?
favors speed and ROM but less efficient
what is the equation for mechanical advantage?
MA= EA/RA
list the levers in order of efficiency? Least to greatest
third class lever, 1st class, 2nd class
list the 4 types of descriptions for kinematic motion?
location, direction, magnitude, rate
is the agonist mover the effort arm or resistant arm?
effort arm
is the antagonist mover the effort arm or resistance arm?
resistance arm
where is the point of application in an open chain movement?
point of application is at distal attachment
where is the point of application in a closed chain movement?
point of application is at proximal attachment
do rotary forces contribute or detract from torque?
contribute
do tensile forces contribute or detract from torque?
detract
do compressive forces contribute or detract from torque?
detract
define moment arm?
perpindicular distance from line of action to axis of rotation
if the clock says 6 o clock, what is the % rotary? what is the % compression/tension
100% compression
What are the two broad categories of arthroses?
1) Synarthroses/ Synarthrodial
2) Diarthroses/ Diarthrodial
