2 examples of where instantaneous velocity is more important than the average velocity are when throwing a discus and doing a high jump.

Provide 2 examples in sport, dance or rehabilitation where maximum stability is desired and explain various ways this can be accomplished.

Football linemen are an example in sport when maximum stability is desired. This is because they are expected to maintain their positions despite the forces exerted on them by the opposing linemen. When these athletes are more massive it is advantageous because then more force is required to produce an acceleration or to push the linemen over. A second example is when batting. Hitting will improve if the grip between the hands and the bat is at maximal stability. Batting gloves help to increase the amount of friction between the hands and the bat which means more force is required to initiate motion. Therefore, the grip will stay in tact while batting.

Explain why pulling a heavy object is easier than pushing it, including appropriate formulas in your answer.

When pushing, the force is directed downwards, whereas when pulling, the force is directed upwards. So, from a mechanical perspective, it is easier to pull than to push an object because pulling decreases the magnitude of reaction force and force of max friction, but pushing increases the two. When the reaction force is decreased, friction is decreased so it becomes easier to initiate motion. Fm = (greek u)sR

Explain the concept of instant center of rotation, including a discussion of why it is important when studying human motion.

The center of rotation at a given joint angle, or at a given instant in time during a dynamic movement is called the instant center. This is important when studying human motion because joint motion is often accompanied by a displacement of one bone with respect to the articulating bone at the joint. This makes finding the location of the exact center of rotation difficult because it changes as joint angle changes. The concept of the instant center of rotation can provide an exact location through measurements so that joint angles can be studied.
