Primary FiTour Aqua Exam
Benefits to Aqua Fitness - ANSWER ✔ Improves Core Stability (Key)
Speeds Up Metabolism
Reduces Stress
Encourages Stress Reduction
Increases HDL Cholestrol
Buoyancy Equipment - ANSWER ✔ Used to perform downward exercises
that utilize the law of buoyancy
Definition of Aceleration - ANSWER ✔ The rate at which velocity changes
Definition of Bouyancy - ANSWER ✔ The upward thrust exerted by water
on a body that is totally or partially immersed.
Definition of Drag - ANSWER ✔ The resistance against an object in water
or on land.
,Definition of Drag Coefficient - ANSWER ✔ Different shaped equipment
yield a greater/lesser drag coefficient creating a different level of resistance
Definition of Fictional Drag - ANSWER ✔ Resistance created by the texture
of the object moving through the water. Example: A swimmer reduces
friction by the swimwear and/or shaving the body
Definition of Hydrostatic Pressure - ANSWER ✔ The weight of the water
that pushes against a submerged object from all sides.
Definition of Inertia - ANSWER ✔ An object in motion tends to stay in
motion/ An object at rest tends to stay at rest (unless acted upon by an
outside force).
Definition of Pool Orientation - ANSWER ✔ Where you do the exercise:
Wall - One or Two hands on wall
Shallow Water Free Standing
Deep Water Free Standing
,Definition of Turbulence - ANSWER ✔ A state of water flow in which the
velocities and pressures fluctuate randomly and irregularly
Definition of Wave Drag - ANSWER ✔ Resistance that is created by
turbulence Example: Can be caused by other participants' movements
For the safety of students, what conditions should be avoided? - ANSWER
✔ High Air Temperature & High Relative Humidity
How does the surface area impact Drag - ANSWER ✔ The bigger the
surface area the more drag
How to create eddies? - ANSWER ✔ Slightly open your fingertips and
move the hand through the water creating a greater force or resistance.
