drafting difference of importance in running vs cycling?

when running behind someone, the air pressure and relative velocity are both decreased, allowing the runner to use less energy to overcome drag force. in cycling the relative velocities of air are higher, so riders use more energy to overcome air resistance. Rare in cycling to see an early breakaway reach the finish line first. in running it is quit common to see an early break away to reach the finish line first. in running about 6-12% of energy is used to overcome air resistance so in cycling drag forces are much more meaningful. faster the riders speed, the more effective drafting becomes. (velocity is squared in drag force equation!!!) drag force increases EXPONENTIALLY with riding speed.

turbulent flow

when the object's velocity is to high or the curvature of the object's surface is too large the deflected molecules do not make it back to the surface and bounce about chaotically, not in the smooth parallel layers.

Suppose this same biker got tired and slowed down to 5 m/s with the same 5 m/s tail wind. What would the relative velocity be equal to now?

The relative velocity would be - 5 m/s + 5 m/s = 0 m/s.

Muscle Activation

When a motor unit is stimulated, acetylcholine (ACh) is released to the sarcolemma (muscle membrane). The interaction of ACh with gates on the sarcolemma allows positively charged sodium (Na+) to flow into the negatively charged intracellular space. Initially, the electrical potential is -90 mV between the intra and extracellular space. The entry of Na+creates a signal that travels to the myofibrils within the muscle fiber. When the Na+ ions arrive, they precipitate the release of Calcium ions (Ca2+) which are used with ATP to contract the muscle at the actin/myosin level. Once the voltage shifts from -90 mV to around -55 mV, the series of events that lead to muscle activation occurs. This will occur anywhere from 10-500 Hz.

how can athletes influence surface drag?

athletes cant really control the fluid viscosity but they can alter the surface texture by wearing smooth, skin tight clothes. rougher surfaces create more friction between the object surface and the fluid molecules it is travelling through.

radius of gyration

(K) The radius of gyration is the root mean square distance of each point on an object relative to its center of mass.

calculate force production using cross sectional area

. Physiological cross-sectional area is usually calculated by multiplying the cross-sectional area mentioned previously by the cosine of the pennation angle. Force production capability of a skeletal muscle is often estimated by multiplying the physiological cross-sectional area by the magnitude of force that can be produced by a certain cross-sectional area of muscle.

There are numerous factors that influence your ability to produce active muscle force using your skeletal muscles. The factors that will be discussed within this chapter are: (6- define each)

1.muscle cross-sectional area- area perpendicular to its length 2. fiber arrangement-The organization of the fibers that make up muscle tissue (parallel, unipennate, multipennate) 3. fiber length- The long measurement of muscle fibers. Fiber length is connected to the range of motion of muscle and contraction velocity. 4. contraction velocity- The velocity of muscle shortening or lengthening. 5. fiber type-A category of muscle matched with its ability to produce force and resist fatigue. Specifically, the type of myosin and degree of oxidative phosphorylation determines fiber type. 6. neuromuscular factors

Most common lever system in the body and why

3rd class since the effort arm (distance from the joint axis to the line of force of the muscle) is relatively short. Third class levers will always have a shorter effort arm than resistance arm. This will create a mechanical advantage geared more towards speed and range of motion than strength.

how can a change in angular momentum affect an object?

A change in angular momentum can affect an object in four ways. First, as we have discussed, it can result in a change in the object's angular velocity. Second, it may result in a change in the direction of the axis of rotation. Third, it may result in a change in the object's moment of inertia. Fourth, some combination of the first three possibilities may occur

The force-velocity relationship of muscle.

A combination of muscle action type (concentric, eccentric, or isometric) and action velocity is also known to influence force production capability. force production capability decreases as the velocity of concentric muscle actions increases. One potential explanation for this observed phenomenon is that as concentric velocity increases, the actin and myosin filaments slide by one another so quickly that some of the binding sites are missed and force production decreases. Second, force production capability increases as the velocity of eccentric muscle actions increases. This increased force production during eccentric muscle actions may be related to passive force that results from stretched, inactivated sarcomeres

1st Class Lever System:

A first class lever has the fulcrum (axis of rotation) in between the effort and resistance forces. Like a seesaw with fulcrum in the middle. Example is neck. neck is fulcrum, weight of your head/face is load on one side of the fulcrum, resistance is the muscles in the back of your neck applying force to lift your head up.

anterior-posterior axis :

A horizontal axis in the anterior/posterior direction. line going in your back and coming out of your belly button.

transverse axis :

A horizontal axis through the medial/lateral direction. line going in one hip and coming out of the other

2nd Class Lever System:

A second class lever has the resistance force in between the fulcrum and effort force. Load is in the middle. example is ankle. pivot point is toes, load is body weight, force is generated up by the calf. think wheelbarrow.

3rd Class Lever System:

A third class lever has the effort force in between the fulcrum and resistance force. Load is on outside, resistance is in middle. example is bicep and most hinge joints (think curl). elbow is fulcrum, tendon connects to forearm and load is held in hands. think tweezers or shovel

Wolff's Law:

A tissue adapts to the level of stress imposed upon it; The level of adaptation reflects the level of typical loading. As stresses are placed upon the body, any tissue that received blood flow will gradually adapt to those stresses. This can lead to an increased ability to withstand stresses (when stresses are greater than the tissue is accustomed to) or a decreased ability to withstand stress (when stresses are lower than the tissue is accustomed to). unless! the tissue is pushed to the point of injury Tissues are also very specific in how they are trained. If someone trains with a low stress and high frequency, there will be greater improvements in those conditions, but not so much in high stress low frequency situations.

diving & CONSERVATION OF ANGULAR momentum

Although total body angular momentum when the sum of external torques is zero, an athlete can transfer angular velocity from one part of the body to another, which changes the amount of angular momentum associated with different parts of the body. diving shows how the velocities of the transverse and longitudinal axes change while total angular momentum of the body stays constant. After the diver leaves the springboard, his upper body has a greater angular velocity than his lower body. As he completes the somersault, he kicks his legs out, transferring angular momentum to his legs. This changes the moment of inertia of his whole body and slows the rotation of the somersault. Now he has to switch axes of rotation and start rotation about the long axis of his body. He does this by changing the orientation of his body and initiating a twisting rotation. Throughout this whole process, he maintains the angular momentum that he left the board with. How he uses his body and manipulates the angular momentum throughout the dive dictates whether or not the dive is successful.

example of altering bodys moment of inertia in sports

As seen in figure skating and diving, athletes take advantage of altering the moment of inertia of their whole bodies to perform various tasks, regardless of which axis they are rotating around. When a diver or gymnast needs to complete a certain number of flips in the air, they will rotate in a tucked position, rather than laid out (or stretched out). This position decreases the moment of inertia of the body as they complete the required rotations.

Stress Strain curves

Elastic, yield point, plastic, ultimate strength/ failure In the elastic region, when the load creating the stress and strain is released, the tissue will return to its original shape and length. If the tissue enters the plastic region, some of the deformation will remain when the load is released. If the load creates too much stress or strain, it will reach the ultimate strength (also known as failure). This is where complete rupture or fracture will occur.

figure skaters & conservation of angular momentum

In order do in air spins the skater needs to generate a lot of angular momentum. When a skater is in the air, no external torques are being applied to the body. Therefore, the skater needs to generate all the necessary angular momentum before leaving the ice. The ability to complete the rotations is dependent on how fast they can spin in the air (angular velocity). Once the skater has left the ice, there is an inverse relationship between moment of inertia and angular velocity (H=Iw). Since they are probably not losing mass in the air, the change in moment of inertia throughout the flight phase of the jump will only be related to changing body position (or the distribution of the mass). When the skater takes off for a jump, his arms are extended away from the body. Once in the air, he pulls his arms in close to his trunk, decreasing his moment of inertia and, since H is constant, increasing his angular velocity. In order to stop rotating before he lands, he repeats the process in reverse - he extends his arms (increasing his total body moment of inertia) and slows rotation.

Conservation of Angular Momentum

In the absence of external torques, the total angular momentum of a given system remains constant. However, even under these conditions, moment of inertia and angular velocity can change.

What happens to the centripetal acceleration when angular velocity doubles? It stays the same It also doubles It quadruples

It quadruples

When a moment arm is cut in half, what will happen to the amount of torque if the force is maintained? It will stay the same. It will double. It will be cut in half. None of the above

It will be cut in half.

While in the air a jumper raises his legs, what will happen to the rest of his body (relative to ground level)? It will drop lower. It will also raise. It will stay the same. It will spin around.

It will drop lower.

As angular velocity is increased, what will happen to the amount of centripetal force required if the radius is maintained? It will increase by the square of how many times the angular velocity increased (if the angular velocity doubled, then the centripetal acceleration would quadruple). It will increase linearly with angular velocity increases. It will not change. It will decrease.

It will increase by the square of how many times the angular velocity increased (if the angular velocity doubled, then the centripetal acceleration would quadruple).

T = Iα

Just as a linear force applied to a mass produces a linear acceleration (F = ma), a net external torque applied to a mass produces an angular acceleration (T = Iα)

Muscle activation leads to a change in electrical potential around muscle membranes. Using surface electrodes or fine wires placed inside muscle, the electrical potential can be measured similar to how a voltmeter measures the electrical potential on a battery The voltages measured using electromyography (EMG) can be measured many times per second providing the frequency and amplitude of electrical potential changes which provide much useful information about the activation of muscle.

eccentric axis

Objects can rotate around many different axes. However, in many cases, we often force objects to rotate around an axis that does not go through its center of mass. Examples include swinging a tennis racquet, a baseball bat, or a golf club. An axis that does not go through an object's center of gravity is called an eccentric axis. This makes calculating the moment of inertia slightly more complex. use formula I= mk^2+ mr^2

angular momentum & golf clubs

Often, one of the goals of hitting a golf ball is to transfer a large amount of linear velocity to the ball. If the golfer can develop a large amount of angular momentum with the club, there is a greater potential to transfer more linear velocity to the ball. How can the golfer develop a lot of angular momentum? Remember the factors that influence angular momentum - mass of the object, distribution of the mass, and the angular velocity of the object. So a heavier, longer golf club swung at the same angular velocity as a shorter, lighter one will have more angular momentum. This comparison of angular momentum is only valid if both clubs are swung at the same angular velocity. Of course this is more difficult with an object of greater mass, or an object that's longer (once again, due to the moment of inertia of the object).

Only three fluid forces exist (buoyancy, drag, and lift)

what causes the resistance in angular motion?

Resistance is caused by the mass of the object and the distribution of that mass relative to the axis of rotation. this value of resistance is the moment of inertia (i). the amount of force that must be applied to move a static object when considering angular motion.

how to determine if an object will float

Specific gravity is one way to determine if an object will float. Specific gravity is defined as the weight of an object divided by the weight of an equal volume of water. If the specific gravity is 1.0 or less, that object will float. Another way to determine the floatability of an object is density. Density is the ratio of mass to volume (Equation 1). The density of water is approximately 1000 kg/m3. If an object is less dense than water, that object will float. In the human body, muscles and bones have densities greater than 1000 kg/m3, however, fat has a density less than 1000 kg/m3. Someone with low body fat may find it harder to float than someone with a higher body fat content. Breathing, however, does contribute to the total body density, as the volume in the chest cavity increases during inhalation and decreases during exhalation.

angular impulse-momentum relationship is represented by formula:

T delta t = deltaI deltaw angular impulse=angular momentum

Tangential Acceleration

Tangential acceleration is the linear acceleration of a point on a rotating object in the direction it is traveling at some instant in time. It is equal to the angular acceleration (α) multiplied by the radius of rotation (r). The angular acceleration must be entered in radians per second squared.

There are three primary categories of stress applied within the human body: .NAME THEM AND DESCRIBE. Each category is based on direction of the stress, relative to the long axis of the biological structure (e.g., bone, muscle, tendon, or ligament)

Tensile stress acts parallel the long axis of a biological structure and tends to elongate the structure. Compressive stress also acts parallel to the long axis of a biological structure, however, compressive stress tends to shorten the structure. Shear stress acts in a direction that is perpendicular to the long axis of the biological structure

density

The density of water is approximately 1000 kg/m3. If an object is less dense than water, that object will float. In the human body, muscles and bones have densities greater than 1000 kg/m3, however, fat has a density less than 1000 kg/m3. Someone with low body fat may find it harder to float than someone with a higher body fat content.

Where is the intersection of axes and planes?

The intersection point of these axes and planes is the center of mass of the body while in anatomical position. When someone goes out of anatomical position, the intersection point stays where it was (somewhere in the pelvis).

centripetal acceleration definition

The linear acceleration of an object directed towards the axis of rotation. This is the acceleration that leads to a rotation of the object.

center of mass & body possitioning

The path of the center of mass during flight is fixed by projectile motion equations. Body positioning can change which leads to center of mass changes relative to the body, but not relative to the ground.

strain :

The percent change in length of a tissue relative to it's original length. Strain usually results from stress. In other words, when a force is applied to a biological structure, stress results and that structure may change shape (deform).

centrifugal force - definition and which newtons law it relates to

The reaction to centripetal force. This force is directed away from the axis of rotation. Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. In this case the reaction to the centripetal force is called centrifugal force and is directed away from the axis of rotation.

moment off inertia in human body

The shape of the human body influences its moment of inertia. The majority of our mass is located closer to the center of mass. Our limbs are relatively light compared to our trunk. Additionally, our segments are tapered - decreasing in size and mass as you get further from the attachment to the trunk. Again, more mass located closer to the "middle" of the body decreases the moment of inertia of the body

what do you need to remember about ALL angular kinematics formulas?

The standard label for angular position for the SI unit system is the radian. All of the formulas in this chapter require calculations to be completed using radians. There are 2 π radians in a full circle (360°). Converting from radians to degrees will require multiplying by 360°/2π . Converting from degrees to radians will require multiplying by 2π/360°.

bouyant force, when will an object sink or float?

The upwards force on an object in a fluid equal to the weight of the volume of the fluid displaced.

When is it possible to generate very large resistance forces?

When the effort arm is longer than the resistance arm. However, this compromises speed.

I= mk^2 + mr ^2 when to use vs. I=mk^2

When the object is not rotating around its center of mass, this equation should be used. The angular inertia (I) around the axis (b) equals mass (m) times the radius of gyration squared plus the mass (m) times the radius of rotation (r) squared. use I=mk^2 when an object is rotating about its center of mass

Mechanical Advantage

When the ratio of effort arm to resistance arm is not equal to 1, there will be either a strength or speed advantage. However, we can position our body relative to the resistance force to modify the mechanical advantage to shift more towards strength or speed. In human body MA is usually less than 1, meaning greater speed and ROM over stregnth. MA= EA/RA

dynamic force

due to relative motion in a fluid. the forces acting on an object as it moves through a fluid are dynamic forces. The dynamic force is proportional to the density of the fluid, the surface area of the object, and the square of the relative velocity of the object with respect to the fluid. With relative velocity being a squared value, it is evident to see that its contribution is the most influential factor in avoiding or creating dynamic fluid forces. Relative velocity considers the velocity of the object with respect to the velocity of the fluid. Therefore, relative velocity is the vector subtraction of the objects velocity from the fluids velocity.

form drag

influenced by the size and shape of an object. component of drag force created by the pressure difference between the front and back sides of an object. Form drag occurs when an fluid molecule first strikes an object, then bounces off of the object to strike another molecule. This collision then causes that original colliding molecule to be sent back towards the objects surface. As this continues, the fluid molecule then follows the curvature of the objects surface as it passes the object.

neural factors of active muscle force production

recruitment patterns : The timing and amplitude of motor unit activation. recruitment rates :The frequency of the signal which is activating muscle. the amount of force that a muscle can produce depends on the number of motor units that are recruited and the rate at which those motor units are recruited. Recruitment patterns describe the number of motor units that can be stimulated (recruited) by the neural system. As the number of motor units that are recruited increases, the number of binding actin and myosin filaments increase, and the magnitude of active muscle force that is produced increases. It is believed that the magnitude of force that is required by the muscle affects the amount of recruitment that will occur. Also, it is generally accepted that various forms of athletic training, including resistance training, will result in more effective, or synchronized, recruitment of various motor units. In addition to this more effective motor recruitment, skeletal muscles also produce more force when more neural impulses are sent in a given amount of time. This also is believed to be affected by exercise.

Form drag and surface drag

Anterior-posterior Axis- which plane corresponds?

Segment length percent

represent the location of each segment's center of mass, measured proximal to distal.

calculating CM for the body

requires the knowledge of mass and position of each part of the body. We have a mass and mass distribution table for males and females. measures segment length percents from proximal to distal.

pennated muscle fibers

run in a direction that is not parallel to the long axis. this affects force production capability because when active force is produced it is not directed towards the long axis In other words, the force that pennated muscle fibers produce is not the same magnitude of force that is produced along the long axis of the muscle fiber (or in direction of the line of pull). In order to calculate the force that is calculated along the line of pull, one must multiply the cosine of the angle of pennation by the force produced by the muscle fibers

lift force

second of the dynamic forces, acts perpendicular to the motion of a body through fluid. can act in any direction, not just up. does not hinder the relative motion, but changes the direction of the motion. occurs due to bernoullis principle. A is total surface area velocity is relative, squared

One factor that affects force production capability is is the arrangement of the actin and myosin filaments, within the muscle fibers. two arrangements are: describe each

series and parallel series- fasicles are end to end along the long axis of a muscle. Although this arrangement is not most beneficial when it comes to force production, this arrangement does facilitate movement throughout a larger range of motion; longer muscle fibers maintain larger ranges of motion. parallel- fasicles are side to side. force production capability is maximized under the parallel arrangement; however, the parallel arrangement is not as conducive to range of motion as the series arrangement. As the number of parallel muscle fibers increase, force production capability also increases. In other words, muscles don't get stronger by becoming longer. They become stronger by becoming wider, or thicker.

Muscle fiber type affects the magnitude of force that can be produced by skeletal muscle, as well as the rate of force production. Generally, muscle fibers a classified into one of four categories: most powerful and why?

slow twitch fatigue resistant : Type (I) A muscle fiber type with a low activation frequency, but a relatively long time to fatigue. fast twitch fatigue resistant : Type (IIa) A muscle fiber type with a activation frequency greater than type I fibers and a relatively long time to fatigue. faster twitch fatigue resistant : (Type IIx) A muscle fiber type with a activation frequency greater than type IIa fibers and a relatively long time to fatigue. fastest twitch fast fatigue : Type (IIb) A muscle fiber type with the greatest activation frequency and a fast time to fatigue. Related to these categories, the power capability is least for the Type I muscle fibers, and greatest for the Type IIb muscle fibers, while the Type IIa and IIx fibers are capable of producing intermediary magnitudes of power. It is generally believed that the ability of the fast twitch muscle fibers to produce more force is due to their high contraction rates

It would increase

optimal fiber length

the basis for active muscle force production is the attachment of the myosin cross bridges to the actin filaments, there is an optimal fiber length in producing skeletal muscle force. That length is the length that optimizes the myosin head overlap with the actin filaments, and this length is sometimes called the sarcomere resting length. Relative to this resting length, as the sarcomere shortens, the actin filaments may begin to overlap. For a reason that is not well understood, the myosin cross bridges do not appear to be able to attach to these overlapping actin filaments; therefore, the force production decreases. Furthermore, as the sarcomere continues to shorten, the actin and myosin filaments begin to bump into the Z-lines and additional force cannot be produced; this has been estimated to be somewhere around 60% of resting sarcomere length. Conversely, if the sarcomere lengthens beyond the resting sarcomere length, the actin myosin overlap is decreased and force production capabilities are also decreased. At some point during the lengthening process, no more actin myosin overlap occurs and the muscle is no longer able to produce active muscle force; this has been hypothesized to be somewhere near 160% of the sarcomere resting length.

why are golf balls special when it comes to form drag?

the dimples cause a layer of turbulent flow to be trapped by the ball and move with the ball. the remaining fluid follows laminar flow, which does not have as much drag, thus increasing distance.

the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation and where the force is applied (line of force).

Young's Modulus

the ratio of stress to strain in Pa (N/m2) it is a measure that describes the stiffness or compliance of a biological structure. Young's Modulus indicates how much force is required to deform a biological structure. Young's Modulus equals the slope of the stress-strain curve. A steep stress-strain curve indicates a stiff structure, while a more gradual stress-strain curve indicates a more compliant structure.

surface drag also known as? influenced by?

the second component of drag force that is influenced by the interaction of the surface of the object and the molecules of the fluid that it is passing through. occurs when a fluid molecule slides past the surface of an object. the friction produced causes the fluid molecule to decrease in speed, which then slows down the surrounding molecules, and so on. also known as skin friction or viscous drag influenced by drag force equation components and viscosity of the fluid, and surface texture of the object.

Most biological structures, including bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments, are anisotropic, meaning:

the stress-strain characteristics differ, depending on the stress direction. Bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments respond differently to different kinds of stress

When a ball has top spin, what happens?

the top side of the ball slows down the fluid coming into contact with it while the bottom side either speeds it up or at least does not slow it down at much. This leads to a faster moving fluid on the bottom of the ball compared with the top. Remembering Bernoulli's principle that high velocity fluids produces a low pressure area, and low velocity fluids produce a high pressure area, the pressure on the top side of the ball is higher than the pressure on the bottom side. This difference in pressure results in a Magnus force acting in the high to low pressure direction, pushing the tennis ball downward. A simpler way to think about the Magnus effect is to think of the direction of the spin on the ball. The Magnus force causes the path of the object to deviate in the direction of the spin

think back to linear kinetics and linear momentum - a concept that allows us to examine the effects of mass and velocity together.
