Q

magnus effect

A

spin ‘grips’ and causes air flow on one side to increase.
fast air flow = low pressure

Q

newtons first law of inertia

A

states that an object will remain stationary/motion until another force acts upon it.
on a goal kick the ball will remain stationary until someone kicks it (applies a force to it)

Q

newtons second law of acceleration

A

the acceleration of an object is directly proportionate to the force causing it to move.
the harder you kick a football the further it will go

Q

newtons third law of reaction

A

states that every action has a reaction
if you kick a football with 100N of force 100N of force will go back into your foot

Q

formula for angular momentum

A

angular momentum = angular velocity x moment of inertia

20
Q

what is moment of inertia

A

an objects reluctance to spin

21
Q

what is momentum

A

the energy a moving object posses

22
Q

what is laminar flow

A

smooth air flow

23
Q

what is turbulent flow

A

distorted air flow

24
Q

types of injury classifications

A

acute-happens in the moment
chronic- happens over time

25
types of tissue
soft tissue- muscle, ligament, tendon, cartilage hard tissue- bone
26
injury classification by diagnosis
open- skin is broken closed - skin remains intact
27
what are fractures
hard tissue injury caused by external forces can be open or closed
28
different types of fracture
closed simple fracture- internal break of the bone compound fracture - a break that is open, penetrates the skin green stick fracture-partial break of the bone (typically happens in children as there bones are bendier)
29
what is a dislocation
bones at a joint are forced out of its position
30
what is a strain
muscle is torn due to overloading/ineffective warm up
31
sprain
torn ligament happens because of twisting eg. twisted ankle
32
catagories of injury
grade 1-mild damage, joint remains stable grade 2- partial tear/ joint is loose grade 3- complete tear (rupture)
33
what is a tendon tear
complete or partial tear of a tendon caused by excessive force whilst the muscle is lengthening
34
what does a ligament join together
ligament joins bone to bone
35
what does a tendon join together
a tendon joins bone to muscle
36
characteristics of a type 1 muscle fibre
slow speed of contraction, high mitachondria desnity high cappilery density to help with gaseous exchange also have a smaller fibre diameter that allows for quicker gaseous exchange higher myoglobin content
37
characteristics of a type 11a muscle fibre type
fatigue quicker than type 1 muscle fibres, medium store of mitachondria, cappileries and myoglobin. more powerful contractions than type 1, they also split ATP at a fast rate.
38
characteristics of a type 11x muscle fibre
more rapid and powerful contractions, fatigue quickly because they are using anaerobic respiration which causes lactic acid as a product and you need oxygen to get rid of it.
39
what is bradycardia
having a hr lower than 60bpm
40
starlings law
the more blood that can be held in the heart means that there will be a stronger contraction. this is due to increased elasticity and contractility of the heart therefore increasing sv and co
41
what is vascular shunting
vascular shunting links to redistribution of blood and vasodilation and vasoconstriction. helped by the vasomotor center.
42
what is cardiovascular drift
a steady increase in heart rate after 10 mins of constant exercise
43
structure of a vein
have valves to stop backflow of blood have narrow lumen thin walls
44
structure of an artery
wide lumen thick muscular walls
45
structure of a capillary
one cell thick walls to allow for efficient gaseous exchange large surface area
46
electrical contraction of the heart
SA node - origin of the impulse AV node - delays the impulse for (0.1seconds) Bundle of his pukinji fibres
