Q

What do levers help the body do?

A

Use its muscles effectively - different levers have different benefits -

Some help heavier loads while others increase the speed of a load can be moved at or the range of movement

Q

What can a lever in the body with a mechanical advantage do?

Small effort from muscles

However

Only move load short distances
Low speeds

Q

Definition for mechanical advantage

A

If the distance from the fulcrum to the effort is greater than the distance from the fulcrum to the load, the lever has a mechanical advantage

18
Q

Do second class levers always have a mechanical advantage or disadvantage?

A

Always has a mechanical advantage

The effort is always further from the fulcrum than the load is

19
Q

A first class lever has a mechanical advantage is the …

A

Fulcrum is closer to the load than it is to the effort

20
Q

A lever with a mechanical disadvantage requires …

A

A large effort from muscles
To move a small load

However

Moves load quickly
Through large range of movement

21
Q

Third class levers always have a mechanic advantage or disadvantage?

A

Disadvantage

The distance from the fulcrum to the effort is always less than the distance from the fulcrum to the load

22
Q

When does a first class lever have a mechanical disadvantage?

A

If the fulcrum is closer to the effort than it is to the load

23
Q

How can u describe body movement

A

Using the plane isn’t moves in

Axis it moves around

24
Q

What’s a plane of movement?

A

An imaginary flat surface which runs through the body

25
Q

What are planes used to describe?

A

The direction of movement

26
Q

What are the three planes of movement

A

Sagittal plane
Transverse plane
Frontal plane

27
Q

What does the sagittal plane do

A

Divided body into left and right sides

28
Q

Transverse plane

A

Divided body into top and bottom

29
Q

Frontal plane

A

Body into front and back

30
Q

What’s an axis of movement
