Final Exam Flashcards
Summation of forces KINETIC LINK PRINCIPLE
- summation of forces from most proximal link to most distal link to generate force and velocity at distal link
ex. Crack the whip
- person at end flies off from
- greater velocity
- centrifugal forces
ANGULAR KINEMATICS
.vt=wr
TORQUE
FORCE x MOMENT ARM.
NEWTONS ROTARY LAWS (Rotary Inertia)
- an object will remain rotating or still unless acted upon by an external torques
ex. Earth spinning, bike tire, Frisbee
MOMENT OF INERTIA
ARMS OUT YOU WILL INCREASE YOUR INERTIA AND VICE VERSA.
DISTRIBUTION OF MASS AROUND AN AXIS THAT YOU ARE ROTATING AROUND, I=MR^2
METHODS OF GENERATING TWIST 3 OF THEM
- Zero Gravity Twist
- Action/Reaction Twist
- Rotation into Twist
CENTRIPETAL FORCES
PULLS IN (is a force that makes a body follow a curved path)
CENTRIFUGAL FORCE
PILLS OUT (is the apparent force that draws a rotating body away from the center of rotation. It is caused by the inertia of the body as the body’s path is continually redirected.)
CENTER OF GRAVITY AND STABILITY
- -segmental alignment -less stable because curvature of spine
- kyphosis
- scoliosis
- lordosis
STABILITY AND GAIT
.
STANDING POSTURE (curvature of spine)
SCOLIOSIS
MUSCLE IMBALANCES
CHEST TOO DEVELOPED- BACK PROBLEMS. “KYPHOSIS”
“LORDOSIS” - TIGHT HIP FLEXORS
“ROTATOR CUFF” - ANTERIOR GREATER THEN POST…
BACK PAIN
DIAGNOSTIC TOOL TO HELP YOU IDENTIFY THE ORIGIN OF PAIN. (muscle imbalances)
ERGONOMICS
- study of work
-designing the work place to fit the person
-started in WW2 with airplane cockpit design
-wanted consistent design
Purpose of ergonomics in workplace
-decrease risk of injury
-enhance productivity and efficiency
-improve quality of work life
Benefits of desk
-sit or stand
-can adjust to different height people
