Question

The force-velocity relationship states that for concentric contractions:

Group of answer choices

the slower a muscle contracts the more force it can produce

the faster a muscle contracts the more force it can produce

the faster a muscle contracts the greater power it can produce

force production depends on the velocity of neural conduction

Expert Solution

Step 1

The force-velocity relationship:

With $F$ being the maximum isometric force and a and b being constants, the relationship between the force (load) and the velocity of shortening (V) in contracting skeletal muscle is part of a rectangular hyperbola is given as:

$(F_{0} + a) V = (F - F_{0}) b$

The force-velocity (F–V) relation shows that depending on the load imposed on it, the muscle can regulate its energy output.
