• “an agent that produces or tends to produce a change in the state of rest or motion of an object”

• Kinetics = study of motion resulting from forces• Forces are vectors:

– Magnitude– Direction

Force is a vector

What are the horizontal and vertical components of a force with a magnitude of 72 N acting at 16 degrees above the horizontal?

Outline• Kinetics: Forces in human motion

• Newton’s Laws– Law of Gravitation

– Center of Mass (C.O.M.)– Laws of motion:

– First Law: Inertia – Second Law: Acceleration– Third Law: Action-Reaction

• Pressure• Friction

Law of Gravitation

• All objects with mass attract one another.• Earth’s Grav. Force on a human = mg = weight• Unit of measurement of force = Newton (N)

Newton = kg • m / s2

• Human: weight of 154 lbs.– mass of 70 kg– weight of 700 N

• 6 fig newtons = 1 Newton• One small apple ~ 1 Newton

Center of mass (C.O.M.)

• A point about which all of the mass of an object is evenly distributed.

• Whole body can be represented by single point mass at C.O.M.

Tips down

C.O.M. position can move.

C.O.M. of whole body: depends on the configuration of the body segments.

From Enoka 2.11

C.O.M. position depends on the distribution of body weight among and within the body

segments• Segmental analysis– head– trunk– upper arm– fore arm– hand– thigh– shank– foot

Enoka 2.13

Table 2.1

Segment mass

• Table 2.1 in Enoka - weights of segments and the position of the C.O.M. of segments.

• Example: thigh Thigh weight = 0.127•BW - 14.8 Thigh weight and BW are in Newtons

If person weighs 700N, thenThigh weight = 74.1 N

Where is the C.O.M. of the

thigh?

• Proximal: Closer to trunk.

• Distal: Further from trunk

Proximal

Distal

Thigh

C.O.M. is ~ 40% ofthe distance from theproximal to thedistal end of thigh

C.O.M. can be located outside the body

C.O.M. and the brain

Newton’s 1st Law:Law of Inertia

• Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change that state by a force impressed upon it– Inertia = resistance of an object to motion• Directly related to body mass

• If SF=0, then Dv=0

Newtons 2nd law:Law of acceleration

A force applied to a body causes an acceleration of a magnitude proportional to the force, in the direction of the force, and inversely proportional to the body’s mass.

SF = ma

SFx = max

SFy = may

a = 5 m/s2

m = 50 kgF = ma = 250 N

A)1368 kg m/s2 B) 1368 NC) 1368 kgD)890 m/s2

E) none of the above

Force in angular motion

• F = ma• Tangential

at = ∆v / ∆t Ft = mat = m∆v/∆t

• Radial ar = v2 / r Fc = mv2 / r centripetal force

Ft = m∆v/∆t

Fc = mv2/r

Force in angular motion: F = ma

ar = r2

at = r

Fc = mr2

Ft = mr

A) 806675 NB) 806.7 NC)10.995 ND)None of the above

Law of action-reaction

• If one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object.

Example of action-reaction• A person exerts a force on

the floor equal to their body weight (mg).

• The floor exerts an equal and opposite force (mg) on the person.– “Ground reaction force”

(GRF)

Measurement of ground reaction force

• Static: a bathroom scale can be used.

• Dynamic (e.g., jump): a force platform should be used.

0.0001 s).• Can measure the forces in three dimensions– Vertical: Fg,y

Force versus pressure

• Force: total force measured in Newtons• Pressure = force per unit area.– Force is measured in Newtons (N).– Area is measured in m2

– Pressure: N / m2 or Pascal (Pa)– P=F/A

Example of Fg versus pressure• Running shoe– Fg = 2000N.– Sole area = 0.025 m2.– Average pressure on sole of shoe (F / A)• F / A = 2000 N / 0.025 m2 = 80,000 N/m2

• Cleats (e.g., for soccer)– Fg = 2000N.– Cleat total area = 0.005 m2.– Average pressure on cleats (F / A)• F / A = 2000 N / 0.005 m2 = 400,000 N/m2

Distribution of pressure under sole of foot

Friction• Resistance to one object sliding, rolling, or flowing over another

object or surface.• Human movement examples: – foot - ground.– bicycle tire - ground– snowboard on snow– friction in joints

• Friction is a reaction force

Fs = friction force

Static Friction force (Fs)

• Friction force depends on:– properties of the surfaces– force acting perpendicular to the surfaces• e.g., ground-foot friction: Fg,y is the perpendicular force

Data from Miller and Nelson 1973.

Ground reaction force during constant velocity cycling

• v = 12 m/s (26 mph): Fg,z ~ 0 N Fg,x = 25 N Fg,y = 500 N (half weight of bike & person)

Bicycle tire friction• No slip: Back wheel |Fg,x| /Fg,y ≤ µs,max

– |Fg,x|/ Fg,y = 25 N / 500 N = 0.05

• Static coefficient of friction for bicycle tire: – dry concrete: 0.8–wet concrete: 0.5– sand: 0.3

Forces parallel to the ground during acceleration in cycling

• Example: A person on a bicycle (total mass of 100 kg) is accelerating at 4 m/s2

– Acceleration force = Fg,x under back tireFg,x = ma = 100 kg * 4 m/s2 = 400 N

– |Fg,x|/ Fg,y = 400 N / 500 N = 0.8

• Static coefficient of friction for bicycle tire: – dry concrete: 0.8–wet concrete: 0.5– sand: 0.3
