Chapter 11 Summary
- In this chapter angular kinetics has been
considered.
- The concepts and principles that surround
angular kinetics have been discussed.
- Moments of inertia and torque have been
defined and calculated, levers, their classifications and
their link to muscle contraction and length during body
segment rotation were covered.
- The application of force–velocity
and length–tension relationships to athlete training
are introduced.
- Finally the very important topic
of angular momentum and the ways in which rotation is initiated
and controlled in sport have been discussed. All concepts
have been developed through laboratory activities and review
questions.
