2 The Nature of Force Force is that which pushes or pulls through direct mechanical contact or through the force of gravity to alter the motion of an object. Internal forces are muscle forces that act on various structures of the body. External forces are those outside the body: Weight, gravity, air or water resistance, friction, or forces of other objects acting on the body. 12A-2

3 Internal Force: Muscular Force In direct proportion to the number & size of fibers contracting in a muscle. Muscles normally act in groups whose force or strength is measured collectively. 12A-3

4 Point of Application Point at which force is applied to an object. Where gravity is concerned this point is always through the center of gravity. For muscular force, this point is assumed to be the muscle s attachment to a bony lever. The point of intersection of the line of force and the mechanical axis of the bone. 12A-4

5 Mechanical Axis The mechanical axis of a bone is a straight line that connects the midpoint of the joints at either end of the bone. Fig A-5

6 Direction Direction of a force is along its action line. Gravity is a downward-directed vector through the center of gravity of the object. Direction of a muscular force vector is the direction of line of pull of the muscle. 12A-6

7 External Forces Accomplished in the same manner as muscular forces applied at an oblique angle. Only horizontal force will move the table. Vertical force serves to increase friction. Fig A-7

8 Composite Effects of Two or More Forces Two or more forces can be applied to objects. A punted ball s path is the result of force of the kick, force of gravity, and force of wind. Muscles work in groups, e.g. the 3 hamstrings. 12A-8

9 Linear Forces For forces applied in the same direction, the resultant is the sum of the forces: a + b = c a b c + For forces applied in the opposite directions, the resultant is the sum of the forces: = a + (-b) = c a b c + = 12A-9

10 Parallel Forces Forces not in the same action line, but parallel to each other. Three parallel forces: two upward one downward Fig A-10

11 Newtons Laws of Motion 1. Law of Inertia A body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion unless an unbalanced force acts on it. An object at rest remains at rest. An object in motion remains in same motion, unless acted upon by an outside force. Friction & air resistance effect objects in motion. 12A-11

12 2. Law of Acceleration The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the force causing it and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. 12A-12

13 Impulse The product of force and the time it is applied. Fig A-13

14 Momentum The product of mass and velocity Any change in momentum is equal to the impulse that produces it. Force applied in direction of motion will increase momentum. Force applied opposite to direction of motion will decrease momentum. 12A-14

15 Summation of Forces Force generated by muscle may be summated from one segment to another. Typical throwing pattern: Force from legs is transferred to the trunk. Further muscular force increases momentum and is transferred to upper arm. Mainly as an increase velocity because mass is smaller. Sequential transfer of momentum continues with mass decreasing and velocity increasing. Finally, momentum is transferred to thrown ball. 12A-15

16 Forces That Modify Motion Weight The force of gravity is measured as the weight of the body applied through the center of gravity of the body and directed toward the earth s axis. W = mg Weight Fig 12.16

17 Contact Forces: Friction Friction is the force that opposes efforts to slide or roll one body over another. In some cases we try to increase friction for a more effective performance (Running Shoes). In other cases we try to decrease friction for a more effective performance (Bowling Shoes) The amount of friction depends on the nature of the surfaces and the forces pressing them together.

18 Elasticity and Rebound Objects rebound in a predictable manner. The nature of rebound is governed by elasticity, mass, and velocity of rebounding surface, friction between surfaces, and angle of contact. Elasticity is the ability to resist distorting influences and to return to the original size and shape.

19 Angle of Rebound For a perfectly elastic object, the angle of incidence (striking) is equal to the angle of reflection (rebound). Fig 12.22

20 Fluid Forces Water and air are both fluids and as such are subject to many of the same laws and principles. The fluid forces of buoyancy, drag, and lift apply in both mediums and have considerable effect on the movements of the human body.

21 Buoyancy Archimedes Principle: a body immersed in a liquid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the liquid displaced. Eureka, Eureka!

22 Drag and Lift Drag is the resistance to forward motion through a fluid (air or water). Result of : fluid pressure on the leading edge of the object. amount of backward pull produced by turbulence on the trailing edge. Fig b

23 Drag and Lift Lift is the result of changes in fluid pressure as the result of difference in air flow velocities. V P Lift Fig c Drag V P

25 Work, Power, and Energy Work Work is the product of force expended and the distance over which force is applied. W = Fs Work (W), Force (F), Distance (s) Units are any combination of force & distance: foot/pounds, joule = 10 7 x 1 gram / 1 centimeter

26 Positive & Negative Work Positive work force acts in the same direction as that of the objects motion. Negative work force acts in the direction opposite to that of the objects motion.

27 Power The rate at which work is done.

28 Energy The capacity to do work. Law of Conservation of Energy: The total amount of energy possessed by a body or an isolated system remains constant. 2 Types of Energy: Potential Energy Kinetic Energy

29 Potential Energy Potential energy: energy based on position. Potential energy is the product of the weight of an object and the distance over which it can act:

30 Kinetic Energy Energy based on motion: Work done is equal to the kinetic energy acquired

31 Analysis of Linear Motion First identify the nature of the forces involved in the motion of interest: Weight Propulsive forces Ground Reaction Force Friction Buoyancy, Drag, & Lift
