Biomechanics
________________- study of the mechanics as it relates to the functional and anatomical analysis of biological systems and especially humans Necessary to study the body’s mechanical
characteristics & principles to understand its movements
4
Biomechanics
____________- study of physical actions of forces
Mechanics is divided into: ____________ ____________
5
Biomechanics
_____________- study of systems that are in a constant state of motion, whether at rest with no motion or moving at a constant velocity without acceleration Statics involves all forces acting on the body being in
balance resulting in the body being in equilibrium
_____________- study of systems in motion with acceleration A system in acceleration is unbalanced due to unequal
forces acting on the body
6
Biomechanics
Kinematics & kinetics ___________- description of motion and includes
consideration of time, displacement, velocity, acceleration, and space factors of a system‘s motion
___________- study of forces associated with the motion of a body
Mechanical advantage Load/effort or load divided by effort Ideally using a relatively small force, or effort to move a
much greater resistance

Mechanical advantage or disadvantage?
How does mechanical advantage affect movement of the lever?
19
Advantage: Small effort moves big resistance
Disadvantage: Big movement required to move resistance a small distance
20
Human Application?
Lever?
________________________ Fulcrum?
________________________ Applied force?
________________________ Resistance force?

21
Classification of Levers
Lever classification based on the relative location of:
1. Axis of rotation/fulcrum (A)
2. Resistance force (R)
3. Applied force (F)
A R F
22
First Class Lever
____________: (A) – Axis of rotation/fulcrum Mechanical advantage Mechanical disadvantage Examples

Human Application
Second class lever _____________________
31
Mechanical advantage or disadvantage?
Not many in the body
32
Human Application
Third class lever ______________________
33
Mechanical advantage or disadvantage?
Many of these in body
