Questions and CORRECT Answers
Inertia - CORRECT ANSWER - Body's tendency to resist acceleration
Inertia - CORRECT ANSWER - This is influenced by the distribution of mass
Moment of inertia - CORRECT ANSWER - Property for rotating bodies representing
resistance to angular acceleration, based on both mass and distance
Radius of gyration - CORRECT ANSWER - Distance from the axis of rotation to a point
where the body's mass could be concentrated without altering its rotational characteristics
Angular momentum - CORRECT ANSWER - Quantity of angular motion possessed by a
body
Angular impulse - CORRECT ANSWER - Change in angular momentum
Moment Arm - CORRECT ANSWER - Perpendicular distance between the muscle's line
of action and the joint center
Yes - CORRECT ANSWER - Does a smaller gymnast have an advantage over a taller
one?

water,she is slowing down her _____ _________.
Kinetics - CORRECT ANSWER - This focuses on the underlying forces of why
kinematics happen
, Linear force - CORRECT ANSWER - A push or pull that produces a change
Torque - CORRECT ANSWER - Force that produces rotation
Torque - CORRECT ANSWER - Measures the distance to where the force is applied
perpendicularly
Relative position - CORRECT ANSWER - The position of one object with respect to
another
Angular force - CORRECT ANSWER - Force that acts on an angle that is made of
horizontal and vertical components
No - CORRECT ANSWER - Does the parallel force have an impact?
Yes - CORRECT ANSWER - Does the perpendicular force have an impact?
No - CORRECT ANSWER - Does the horizontal component influence how big the change
is?
Inertia - CORRECT ANSWER - The desire to retain in a static state; takes mass into
account
Angular - CORRECT ANSWER - If you see "moment" or "torque" then you know we are
talking about ________ rotation
