Unit II Flashcards
If two forces are applied to an object simultaneously, the ______ vector is a combination of the two
resultant
Newton’s third law of motion: “equal & opposite force”
Force straight down results in GRF force straight up
Force against ground backwards and down causes force up and forward
Ground Reaction Forces
As we move away from earth’s surface, our weight (mass+gravity) diminishes but never full disappears
Ther is always some fraction of gravitational pull toward the Earth, even in outer space
Newton’s Universal Law of Gravitation
Gravity pulls us down causing an acceleration downward at
9.81m/s^2
What is the weight equation?
Fweight= mass x gravity
How much GRF do we need against gravity for us to not move?
enough to bring the net force to zero
____ is the tendency of an object to keep moving
momentum
What is the equation for momentum?
M= Mass x velocity
Two people can have similar momentum, even with different mass, provided that the person with less has more ______.
velocity
When two object collide, there is a transfer of ____ ____ from one object to another
linear momentum
What is an example of the conservation of linear momentum?
baseball impact with bat: after impact, bat loses velocity but ball gains it
Describes the amount of time that force is applied to an object
Impulse
____ is neccessary to change momentum
impulse
What is the equation for impulse?
Impulse= Force x Time
What is the equation for impulse in relation to momentum?
Impulse= the change in momentum
F x t= m x change in velocity
more time x more force = more impulse means more total change in ______
velocity
_____ is the rate at which you develop force
RFD
Higher RFD= ___ force generation
faster
Lower RFD= ____ force generation
slower
High RFD= ___ impulse
higher
Low porosity, 5-30% of bone volume is occupied by non-mineralized tissue
Cortical bone
high porosity, 30-90% of bone volume is occupied by nonmineralized tissue
Trabecular bone
The threshold stimulus that initiates new bone formation
Minimal Essential Strain
Goal is to maximize diameter of bone and _____ thickness
cortical
MES=
1/10th of the force required to fracture bone
Bone adaptation take about____ months to increase BMD
6
stronger forces of muscular contraction= more mechanical stress on bone= increase in bone____ and bone ____

SAID
What are the structural exercises that direct the spine and hip?
Back Squat
Power clean
Deadlift
snatch
Push jerk
