quiz 2 Flashcards
description of motion: type, location, direction, magnitude, duration
kinematics
the analysis of the forces that produce motion or maintain equilibrium
kinetics
three types of motion
rotary
translatory
curvilinear
rotary motion
rotation around a fixed point
translatory motion
movement in a straight line
curvilinear motion
a combination of rotary and translatory motion
the manner in which adjoining joint surfaces move on each other
arthrokinematics
types of arthrokinematic motion
glide-linear
roll-movement
spin-rotation
newton’s laws
1: inertia
2: acceleration
3: reaction
force that causes compression
push
force that causes tension
pull
components of force vector
point of application
direction
magnitude
linear force
two or more forces acting along the same line
ex: gastrocnemius and soleus
concurrent force
two or more forces actin on a common point pushing or pulling in different directions
ex: deltoid
parallel force systems
occurs in the same plane and in the same or opposite direction
ex: sternocleidomastoids, external obliques
force couple
occurs when two or more forces act in different directions, resulting in a turning effect
ex: scapula rotation
