Biomechanics - ✔✔✔is the general study of forces and their effects
kinematics - ✔✔✔the study of energy transfer as it applies to identifying actual or potential injuries
Mechanism of Injury (MOI) - ✔✔✔is how external forces are transferred to the body, resulting in injury
Newton's First Law - ✔✔✔a body at rest will stay at rest unless acted on by an outside force
Newton's Second Law - ✔✔✔Force = mass x acceleration
Newton's Third Law - ✔✔✔For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
Law of Conservation of Energy - ✔✔✔Energy cannot be created or destroyed
Kinetic Energy - ✔✔✔KE=1/2mv^2
when mass is doubled, energy is doubled
when velocity is doubled, energy is quadrupled
Forms of Energy - ✔✔✔mechanical, thermal, chemical, electrical, radiant
mechanical- the direct impact of an object, such as in a car collision or a pot to the head
