1.3 Basic Concepts

• Newtonian mechanics are based on:– Length (L; quantitative measure of size)– Time (T; concept for ordering flow of events)– Mass (M; quantitative measure of inertia, the

resistance to change in motion, of matter)

Jamshidi AA, PT 3

1.3 Basic Concepts

• Derived concepts:– Velocity (time rate of change of position)– Acceleration (time rate of increase of velocity)– Force (action of one body on another, or a

mechanical disturbance or load)– Moment/Torque (quantitative measure of twisting

action of a force on a body)

Jamshidi AA, PT 4

Kinematics• Description of the movement of the body,

independent of the forces or torque that cause movement and include:

• Linear & Angular displacement• Velocities• Accelerations

– Type of motion• Translation: linear motion in which all part of a rigid body move

parallel to and in the same direction as every other parts. • Rotation: all points in the rigid body simultaneously moves in a

circular path about some pivot point (axis of rotation).

Jamshidi AA, PT 5

Kinetics• Describe the effect of forces on the body.

– Force: push or pull that can produce, arrest or modify movement.

– Newton’s second law: quantity of a force (F) can be measured by product of the mass (m) multiplied by the acceleration (a) of the mass. Force is zero when the acceleration is zero.

• Kinetic analysis include: moment of force produced by muscles crossing a joint, the mechanical power flowing from muscles, energy changes of the body

Musculoskletal forces• Internal Forces: produced from structures located

within the body.– Active force (stimulated muscle)– Passive force (ligament, capsule or intramuscular connective

tissue, friction)• External Forces: produced by forces acting from

outside the body.– Gravity– Ground– External load– Physical contact

Vector: a quantity that is completely specified by its magnitude and direction

Factors required to describe a vector

• Magnitude: length of the arrow

• Direction: spatial orientation of the shaft of the arrow

• Sense: orientation of the arrowhead

• Point of application: where the base of arrow contact the body

Newton's Laws

1.4 Newton's Laws

• Newton's first law:– A body at rest will remain at rest; a body

in motion will remain in motion – Bodies in motion will travel at constant

velocity and in a straight line– Requires the sum of the forces acting on

a body to be zero (thus, the body is in equilibrium)

– SF = 0 – SM = 0

Jamshidi AA, PT 12

Newton’s First LawLAW OF INERTIA

• Inertia is related to the amount of energy required to alter the velocity of a body

• The inertia within a body is directly proportional to its mass• Center of mass is where the acceleration of gravity acts on

the body (center of gravity)• Mass moment of inertia of a body is a quantity that

indicates its resistance to a change in angular velocity I = m X ρ2

1.4 Newton's Laws (cont.)

• Newton's second:– A body with a nonzero net force will

accelerate in the direction of the force– The magnitude of the acceleration is

proportional to the magnitude of the force

– SF = m * a– Thus, the first law is a special case of

the second law

Jamshidi AA, PT 16

Newton’s Second LawLAW OF ACCELERATION

• Linear motion: force-acceleration relationship• ΣF = m X a

– ΣF designate the sum of or net forces

• Rotary motion: torque-angular acceleration relationship• ΣT = I X α

– ΣT designate the sum of or net forces

Jamshidi AA, PT 17

Impulse-momentum relationship

• F = m X v/t Ft = m X v• Linear momentum = mass X linear velocity• Linear impulse = force X time

• T = I X ω/t Tt = I X ω• Angular momentum = I X angular velocity• Angular impulse = torque X time

• Momentum: quantity of motion possessed by a body• Impulse: what is required to change the momentum

Jamshidi AA, PT 19

• Newton's third law:– For every action, there is an equal and

opposite reaction ("if you push against the wall, it will push you back")

– The forces of action and reaction are equal in magnitude but in the opposite direction

– Important for helping draw free body diagrams, and concept of "normal" force

Newton’s Third LawLAW OF ACTION-REACTION

• Every effect one body exerts on another is counteracted by an effect that the second body exerts on the first

• The two body intact is specified by the law of acceleration ΣF = m X a

• Each body experiences a different effect and that effect depends on its mass
