Vector Algebra Vector Kinetic vector quantities –force weight, pressure, specific weight & torque Kinematic vector quantities –Displacement, velocity & acceleration Scalar quantities –Mass, volume, length & speed
2
Vector Composition Resultant vector “Tip-to-tail” vector composition Vector #1 Vector #2 Resultant vector
3
Vector Resolution Vertical Horizontal Example: A ball is thrown into the air
4
Graphic Solution of Vector Problems Graphic vector manipulation may yield approximate result 30 N = 3 cm 35 N = 4.5 cm 1 cm = 10 N
5
Trigonometric Solution of Vector Problems A more accurate procedure for quantitatively dealing with vector problems
6
Vector Resolution Problems (pp 76-81) Projectile motion situations –Find horizontal velocity –Find vertical velocity Friction problems –Find horizontal force component (Friction) –Find vertical component (Normal) First step in adding, or combining vectors –When more than one force is acting on an object –When adding velocity vectors
7
Vector resolution: Turning comp = FdsinΘ Radial comp = FdcosΘ ( d = dsinθ) Vert comp = FsinΘ Horiz comp = FcosΘ Θ Vert comp = FsinΘ Horiz comp = FcosΘ Θ Θ Θ Θ d
8
Vector Addition Problems Combining forces –Net effect of two forces applied to any object –What is maximum safe speed for a curve? Centrifugal force, frictional force, & gravity –What makes a curveball curve? Wind force and weight Combining velocities –In crossing a river, what direction is best? Velocity of water and swimmer –In aviation, correcting for wind air speed and ground speed

Self-test Problems for Chapter 3 on Kinetic concepts Introductory problems, p 80 –#1,2, 5 Additional problems, p 81 –#1, 4, 5, 7
13
Projectile Motion characteristics and analysis procedures (PP 329-347) Objectives –Review characteristics of projectile motion (pp 329-347) –Review factors influencing projectile motion –Present and explain calculation methods for analyzing projectile motion
14
Projectile motion characteristics It is a freely falling body, subject to only two forces – gravity and wind resistance May be dropped, or projected (1) vertically, (2) horizontally, or (3) obliquely Flight pattern is determined by initial velocity –Speed (V 0 ) –Direction ( )
15
Projectile motion (cont’d)
16
Projectile motion, cont;d
17
Projectile motion, cont’d
18
Ignoring air resistance, flight pattern is parabolic
19
Projectile motion, cont’d Effect of angle or projection on flight pattern
20
Projectile motion, cont’d Projectile height plays a role in optimal projection angle for horizontal distance
21
Projectile motion, cont’d If projection angle is constant, range increases directly with magnitude of velocity
22
Projectile motion, cont’d Resolving projectile motion into vertical and horizontal components – the first step in calculating motion parameters of interest V v = V sin V h = V cos
23
Projectile motion, cont’d Primary motion quantities of interest are usually: –Time of flight –Zenith, or maximum height –Range, or horiz dist –If time is calculated first, this reduces to: D horiz = V horiz T = V cos T
24
Self-test problems on Projectile motion Introductory problems #6, 7, 8, 9 p 345-346 Additional Problem #10, p 347 Hint: Solve for time of flight: then solve for D horiz : D horiz = V horiz T = V cos T
26
COM Concepts and calculation procedures Obbjectives –To review concept of COM –To review reasons for studying COM –To review calculation method for calculating COM of human body
27
Why study Center of Mass of Human Body? It simplifies the movement of the complex system so that we can understand its overall motion It allows us to easily consider the effect of net external forces (F = ma; a = F/m) Example of important issues related to COM To review reasons for studying COM –Is COM different for children and adults in a way that affects movement? –Can an athlete really “hang in the air” –Is COM different for males and females in a way that affects movement?
28
COM/COG Calculation Method ( pp 436-445: Kreighbaum pp 116-123, 586-587) Concept of balancing segmental torques Segmental Calculation of COM –General calculation method –Information needed Proportionate mass of each segment (p 520) location of COM of each segment (p 521) –Homework problem
29
Segmental concept of center of mass
30
Segmental Calculations & Homework Problem
32
Segmental concept of center of mass –Information needed Proportionate mass of each segment (p 520) location of COM of each segment (p 521)
36
Summary This chapter introduced basic concepts related to kinetics Several types of mechanical loads act on the human body. The distribution of force within a body structure is termed mechanical stress. Vectors quantities have magnitude & direction Vector problems may be solved by a graphic or a trigonometric approach. Kinematic concepts related to projectile motion were introduced Calculation methods for total body COM were presented
