| Summary: | This program looks at the physics of human movement. It begins by examining some of the fundamentals of mechanics, including Newton's laws, types of forces, force summation, inertia, momentum and acceleration. It also covers the three types of levers - first, second and third class - and investigates where levers exist in the human body. Types of motion; friction, balance and stability in relation to biomechanics and the human body are also explored. Source : VEA webpage (http://www.vea.com.au). |
