The Seven Biomechanical Principles

Question 1

what are the seven principles?

Answer 1

1. stability
2. production of maximum force
3. production of maximum velocity
4. impulse momentum relationship
5. direction of application of the applied force
6. production of angular motion
7. conservation of angular momentum

Question 2

what are the factors affecting stability?

Answer 2

1. mass
2. height of centre mass
3. size of base support
4. location of mass within base support

Question 3

production of maximum force…

Answer 3

the production of maximum force requires the use of all possible joint movement that contribute to the tasks objective

Question 4

production of maximum velocity…

Answer 4

the production of maximum velocity requires the use of joints in order from largest to smallest

Question 5

4th principal..

Answer 5

the greater the applied impulse, the greater the increase in velocity
