#1
Front (Question)

Mechanics

Back (Answer)

a branch of maths dealing with motion and forces producing motion.

#2
Front (Question)

Biomechanics

Back (Answer)

Study of mechanics in biological systems like humans.

#3
Front (Question)

Force=

Back (Answer)

Mass x Acceleration

#4
Front (Question)

Distance =

Back (Answer)

Speed x Time

#5
Front (Question)

Momentum=

Back (Answer)

Mass x Velocity

#6
Front (Question)

Pythagoras=

Back (Answer)

A squared + B squared = C squared

#7
Front (Question)

Velocity=

Back (Answer)

change in displacement/change in time

#8
Front (Question)

Speed=

Back (Answer)

Distance/Time

#9
Front (Question)

Mass=

Back (Answer)

Force/Acceleration

#10
Front (Question)

Acceleration=

Back (Answer)

Force/Mass

#11
Front (Question)

SOH Sine=

Back (Answer)

Opposite/Hypotenuse

#12
Front (Question)

CAH Cosine=

Back (Answer)

Adjacent/Hypotenuse

#13
Front (Question)

TOA Tan=

Back (Answer)

Opposite/Adjacent

#14
Front (Question)

Distance

Back (Answer)

• Distance is measured along the path of motion. • refers to the sum of all movements in whatever direction • 1 lap of the track = 400m • distance is a scalar quantity.

#15
Front (Question)

Scalar

Back (Answer)

a simple measure of magnitude (how big, fast, long… something is)

#16
Front (Question)

Displacement

Back (Answer)

• Linear displacement is measured in a straight line from the initial position to the final position. • when a runner completes a lap of the track, linear displacement is 0m. Displacement is a vector

#17
Front (Question)

Vector

Back (Answer)

A vector quantity has a magnitude and direction. Displacement is 21m right for example.

#18
Front (Question)

Angular Distance

Back (Answer)

length of the angular path that an object travels

#19
Front (Question)

Angular Displacement

Back (Answer)

The angle between the final position and the initial position

#20
Front (Question)

Angular Speed/Velocity

Back (Answer)

Rate of change, over time, in angular distance/displacement

#21
Front (Question)

Angular Acceleration

Back (Answer)

Rate of change, over time, in angular velocity

#22
Front (Question)

Converting Radians to Degrees

Back (Answer)

Multiply by 180 and divide by Pi

#23
Front (Question)

Converting Degrees to Radians

Back (Answer)

Multiply by Pi and divide by 180

#24
Front (Question)

Converting degrees into revolutions

Back (Answer)

Divide by 360
