A

The resistance and the force are on either side of the axis.

17
Q

Second Class Lever

A

The resistance is between the force and the axis.

19
Q

Qualitative Analysis

A

Analysis of human movement involving non-numeric descriptions.

20
Q

Quantitative Analysis

A

Analysis of movement involving the use of numbers.

21
Q

Momentum

A

The motion possessed by a moving body.

22
Q

Impulse

A

Product of a force and the time period over which it is applied, which is equal to the change in momentum of an object.

23
Q

Force

A

A push or pull acting on an object.

24
Inertia
The tendency of an object to resist change in it's state of motion.
25
Velocity
Displacement divided by the change in time.
26
Coefficient of Restitution
A measure of elasticity of bodies involved in a collision.
27
Newton's First Law
A body will remain in at rest or continue in a state of constant motion unless acted upon by external forces.
28
Newton's Second Law
A force applied to an object will produce a change in motion in the direction of the applied force that is directly proportional to the size of the force.
29
Newton's Third Law
For every action there is an equal an opposite reaction.
30
Torque
Force times lever arm.
31
Conservation of Momentum
The total momentum of the system before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision.
32
Field-testing Analysis
Outdoor environment analysis of subject.
33
Laboratory Analysis
Indoor analysis of subject.
