Two goals of studying sports & exercise biomechanics
Enhance skill performance
Reduce
the
risk
of
injury
View source
1
kg mass experiences a
1
m/s^2 acceleration with a force of
1
N (F = ma)
View source
Kinematics
Study of description of
motion
,
independent
of force
View source
In Biomechanics, the
shape
of the object does not
change
View source
Forces come in
pairs
(action and reaction)
View source
Basic dimensions
Length - meters
Time - seconds
Motion
- speed (m/s), velocity (m/s^2), acceleration (m/s^2)
Inertia
- resistance to change
Mass
= amount of matter in the object & it never changes in anywhere in the universe
View source
Kinetics
Study of explanation of
motion
, deals with the
forces
View source
Movement
is interaction between two movements
View source
Forces
enable us to walk, run, change directions, stand still
View source
Forces
are exerted by objects on other objects
View source
Vector
Size (
magnitude
) and direction (
orientation
)
View source
A force
accelerates
an object
View source
Force comes in
pairs
View source
Force
A push or a pull
View source
Unit of force is
Newton
(
N
):
1 N
=
1 kg x 1 m/s^2
View source
Contact forces
Friction
force
Normal
(Contact) forces
Gravity
(Weight)
View source
Internal forces
Tensile
forces
Compressive
forces
Muscle
force
Muscle
lengthening
&
shortening
View source
Noncontact forces
Gravity
,
Magnetic
forces,
Nuclear
force
View source
External
forces and
internal
forces exist
View source
Weight is a force, and if gravity is the only force acting on an object, it will accelerate at 9.81 m/s^2 (
gravitational acceleration
)
View source
Center of Mass
(
COM
) is important in analyzing motion
View source
If the gravity of the earth is the only force acting on an object, the gravity will
accelerate
the object
View source
9.81 m/s2 is the
gravitational acceleration
(g)
View source
In sports & exercise, the only
noncontact
force is ourselves with the force of
gravity
View source
Mass
The
amount
of
matter
View source
Normal Force
Perpendicular to the surface that an object contacts
View source
Weight
Force of gravity acting on an object
View source
Static Friction vs Kinetic (Dynamic) Friction
Static friction force is
greater
than kinetic friction force
View source
Contact forces
Forces that occur between
objects
in
contact
with each other
View source
Friction Force
Opposes relative
motion
, proportional to the
normal contact force
,
independent
of the
size
of the surface area,
proportional
to the
roughness
of the surface area
View source
Friction force is
independent
of the size of the surface area
View source
Friction force is
proportional
to the roughness of the surface area
View source
Friction force
is a
contact force
that acts between and
parallel
to the two
surfaces
in
contact
View source
More than one of these
external
forces will act on us in most situations
