1
New cards

Define Static Equilibrium (+example)

when all parts of the body or object are at rest eg, a ball stationary on the ground

2
New cards

Define Dynamic Equilibrium

when a body is in motion with a constant velocity

3
New cards

Define Stability

the degree to which a body resists changing its equilibrium

4
New cards

Define Centre of Gravity

the point of an object around which all of its weight is evenly distributed and balanced

5
New cards

Define Base of Support

the area of an object that is in contact with the object supporting it

6
New cards

How do you increase stability and balance? (4)

lower COG, line of support over base, increase base of support, increase friction 

7
New cards

How do you decrease stability and balance? (4)

raise COG, move line of gravity outside base of support, narrow base of support, decrease friction

8
New cards

Why would you decrease stability and balance?

If a body is stable it is harder to disrupt its equilibrium

9
New cards

What is Qualitative Movement Analysis?

systematic approach to analyse the performance of skills and provide feedback

10
New cards

What are the steps for QMA

Preparation, observation, evaluation, error correction
