Fundamental Concepts
andPrinciples of Mechanics
MechanicsMechanics
• Science concerned with the effects of forces acting on objects (body) • body: focus of the analysis
• human body• individual body segment• specific tissue / anatomical site• balls, pucks• implement: bat, stick, club
MechanicsMechanics
• Science concerned with the effects of forces acting on objects (body)• Rigid-body mechanics• Deformable body mechanics• Fluid mechanics• Relativistic mechanics• Quantum mechanics
Rigid Body MechanicsRigid Body Mechanics
• Acceptable for analyzing gross movements
• Assumptions• body does not deform by bending,
stretching or compressing• segments are rigid links joined by
frictionless hinges at joints

Basic dimensions in Basic dimensions in mechanicsmechanics
• Describe someone out for a run• Kinematics
• How far did she run?• How long to run that far?• How fast was she? • How big is she?
• Kinetics• What friction under her feet?• What forces on her joints?• What tension in her muscles?
LengthLength
• Measure to describe• location at a particular point in her run• how far she ran
• Feet, inches, miles• Systeme Internationale d’Unites (SI)
• meter• 1 m = 3.28 feet = 39 inches
TimeTime
• Measure to describe how long it takes her
• seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years
• Systeme Internationale d’Unites (SI)• second (s)
Length & time = motionLength & time = motion
• Space to move in and time during which to move
• speed & velocity==> length per unit of time • miles per hour• m / s
• acceleration• m/s/s
InertiaInertia
• Inertia• resistance to a change in state of
motion
• Who is harder to start or stop moving• Olympic weight lifter• Olympic gymnast
InertiaInertia
• Inertia• resistance to a change in state of
motion
• Who is harder to start or stop moving• Olympic weight lifter: has more inertia• Olympic gymnast
Inertia and MassInertia and Mass
• Inertia• resistance to a change in state of motion
• Mass• the quantity of matter a body possesses• quantifies inertia (the measure of
inertia)• Greater mass, greater inertia
resistance to change state of motion
• units are kilogram (kg) or slug (English)• Not the same as weight
Importance of Inertia & Importance of Inertia & MassMass
• Provide another example of changing motion in • sport• exercise• workplace
Importance of Inertia & Importance of Inertia & MassMass
• Provide another example of changing motion in • Sport: size expectations of different
positions (ie interior defensive linemen)• Exercise: alter mass to be moved to
increase load on NMS system (ie push-up)• Workplace: alter mass of components to
reduce load (ie cement bags, engine blocks)
3 basic 3 basic dimensionsdimensions• Length
• Time• Mass
• Force: defined from the above• a push or pull acting on a body
All that is needed to describeand explain the motion of objects
ForceForce• Force: a push or pull acting on a body that
causes or tends to cause a change in the linear motion of the body
• Characteristics of a force• magnitude• direction• point of application.• line of action
• Net Force: resultant force (overall effect of multiple forces acting on a body)
• Example: push from side and front = at angle

• Law of inertia - a body in motion will stay in motion and a body at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by a net external force.

HANS deviceHANS device
The HANS® (Head And Neck Support) Device was originally designed to limit the extreme front to back andside-to-side movement of the head and neck during a violentcrash. Using a collar and yoke system made of carbon fiberand Kevlar, the device is connected to the helmet with aseries of quick connect tethers. The HANS® Device is wornaround the neck and down the front of the shoulders,underneath the safety belts of the shoulder harness. Thisallows for normal movement of the head and helmet, but limits the extreme movement of the head and neck that is so common in the rapid deceleration during a crash

Newton's 3rd Law of Newton's 3rd Law of MotionMotionNewton's 3rd Law of Newton's 3rd Law of MotionMotion
• Law of action-reaction - for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
• There are two bodies involved when force is exerted
• The force on each body is the same size, but in opposite directions
• true even when the bodies are of significantly different mass

• Law of acceleration - an unbalanced force applied to a body causes an acceleration of that body with a magnitude proportional to the force, in the direction of the force, and inversely proportional to the body's mass.
Newton & Swimming
F = ma• Unbalanced force causes a
change in motion (an acceleration)• CAUSE-EFFECT relationship
During running, if a runner swings his arms across his body, there is a compensatory increase in pelvic rotation.
It is more efficient and better for the pelvis and pelvic musculature if the runner moves his arms parallel to the motion in which he is running.

g = Gravitational g = Gravitational accelerationacceleration
• The acceleration of gravity• - 9.81 m/s2 (- 10 m/s/s)
• Negative sign??? • indicates that the acceleration caused
by gravity is directed downward or toward the center of the earth
• The earth sucks

WeightWeight• Weight
• the amount of gravitational force exerted on a body
• F = m g• W = m g
• W: weight (wt) (units: N or lbs)• m: mass of the body (units: kg)• g: gravitational acceleration (units: m/s/s)
• As the mass of a body increases, its’ weight increases proportionally
Weight is a forceWeight is a force
• As a force, weight characterized by • magnitude
• proportional to mass
• direction• ALWAYS downward
• point of application• at center of gravity of the body
• Units: Newtons or pounds (mass???)
