- Differentiate between the arrangement of elements (load, fulcrum, and effort) in first-, second-, and third-class levers.arrow_forwardWhere are the effort, fulcrum, and resistance in the act of dorsiflexion? What class of lever does the foot act as during dorsiflexion? Would you expect it to have a mechanical advantage greater or less than 1.0? Why?arrow_forwardYou are trying to jump from a crouched position (knee fully flexed), 1) list all of the muscles at the knee and hip that would move you from this position to in the air. 2) using the principle of active insufficiency please also outline the timing of the muscle force for the knee and the hip (i.e. what muscles provide the most force early in the movement, when the knee and hip are both more flexed, and what muscles provide the most force later in the movement, when the hip and knee are both more extended)arrow_forward
- GIVE 3 EXERCISES THAT CAN BE CONSIDERED AS A LOCOMOTOR MOVEMENT WITH ABDUCTION AND ADDUCTION MOVEMENT. WHY?arrow_forwardWith the shoulder flexed at 30°, the moment arm of the deltoid muscle is 2.0 cm. Solve for the force exerted by the deltoid muscle at the glenohumeral joint give the following assumptions: The deltoid is the only active muscle at the glenohumeral joint The weight of the humerus is 48 N. The center of gravity of the humerus is located 30 cm from the shoulder center of rotation STATIC EQUILIBRIUM EQUATIONS CONSIDERING ONLY THE DELTOID MUSCLE Fo MA = 18 Cn COR B=55". 0-30° RaF 30 cm FG = 24 Narrow_forwardTwo lifter's knees are of interest at a specific moment in their lifts. In both lifts, the knee extensor torque is 100 Nm, requiring quadriceps tendon/patella ligament forces of 1000 N (about 220 Ibs). Despite equivalent knee torques and quadriceps forces, patellofemoral joint forces are higher on the knees of lifter A. Briefly explain why.

- We move a lot and do not even realize how intricate these movements may be from gross motor to fine motor manipulations. Briefly explain the steps involved in a single muscle contraction beginning at the neuromuscular junction through one complete contraction and relaxation for the sliding filament theory. Don’t forget to include all the major proteins (actin, myosin, troponin and tropomyosin) involved as well as calcium and ATP.arrow_forwardHow much force must be produced by the biceps brachii, attaching at 90? to the radius at 3 cm from the center of rotation at the elbow joint, to support a weight of 200 N held in the hand at a distance of 30 cm from the elbow joint? (Neglect the weight of the forearm and hand, and neglect any action of other muscles)arrow_forwardIf an individual does training with only the right knee extensor muscles, it is common to see increase in strength in knee extension force for the right leg and an increase in strength in the knee extension force of the left leg (although the increase in force is typically not to the same extent as the force increase in the right leg) a.) True b.) Falsearrow_forward
- Give a part of the body that uses the 2nd class lever system and; Explain how does the type of the lever system employed by the muscle influence the force it can generate and the load it can overcome?arrow_forwardIn the EMG experiment. the measured force came from the contraction of which muscles? Check all that apply. Check All That Apply flexor digitorum superficialis flexor pollicis longus flexor carpi ulnaris flexor carpi radialis palmaris longusarrow_forwardThe flexors of the leg include all of the following except the: Question 29 options: biceps femoris rectus femoris semimenbranosus semitendinosus saritorius Question 30 The muscle fiber arrangement of the rectus femoris is: Question 30 options: bipennate and has greater potential for force bipennate and creates tension through a greater range fusiform and creates tension through a greater range fusiform and has greater potential for force.arrow_forward
