46
Q

T or F: air resistance is a type of friction force

A

True, because it is counted as friction

47
Q

Define Force Production

A

Ability of the body to generate movement against resistance

48
Q

What are the 3 biomechanical concepts involved in force production?

A

Momentum, Summation of force, impulse

49
Q

How do you calculate momentum?

A

Mass (kg) x Velocity (m/s)

50
Q

T or F: Momentum can be lost

A

False

51
Q

How does conservation of momentum work?

A

Momentum is transferred from one object to another

52
Q

T or F: Summation of forces means the largest force

A

False

53
Q

What influences summation of force?

A

Number of body parts, order and timing, force and velocity generated, way in which body is balanced

54
Q

T or F: Balance affects total power exerted.

A

True

55
Q

What is impulse (in biomechanics)?

A

Combined effort of force and time.

56
Q

Which requires more force, a jump or hitting a baseball with a bat?

A

Baseball, because the time is shorter, so need a larger force
