    linear speed - rate of motion
  2. Which of the following describe "a change in factor" that would decrease the time it takes to travel a specific linear distance?
    an increase in the body's linear speed (s)

    and/or

    a decrease in the distance to be travelled (l)
  3. Which of the following is/are examples of situations where the type of analysis used to study the activity is based on Newton's 1st law (i.e., no acceleration)?
    movements that involve no change in motion

    for example, ice skating

    • -a body that is moving will continue to move in the same direction with the same speed
    • -a body at rest will stay at rest
  4. A skater gliding on ice will continue to move in the same direction, with the same speed and with no acceleration. This statement would be an example of Newton's _______ Law.
    First

    linear conservation of momentum principle
  6. If an athlete increases her velocity, what happens to her linear momentum?
    linear momentum increase
  7. Linear Conservation of Momentum "requires" which of the following conditions?

    form drag
  16. The two types of fluid motion that influence form drag are...
    laminar flow (higher pressure)

    and

    turbulent flow (lower pressure)
  17. The dimples on a golf ball travelling at greater than 20 mph influence drag force by...
    form drag

    wear skin tight clothes

    remove body hair
  19. Which of the following describe "a change in factor" that would decrease the magnitude of the drag force?
    a decrease in:

    -form drag

    -surface drag

    -fluid density

    -relative velocity
  20. The buoyant force acts in the ______ direction.
    upward
  21. The buoyant force acting on your body when you are completely submerged under water is determined by knowing...
    Whether or not a buoyant force exists depends on the density of the body

    muscle and bone density is GREATER than 1000kg/m3 (will sink)

    fat has a density LESS than 1000 kg/m3 (will float)
  24. A submerged object will rise up to the surface if ______.
    if the density is less than water
  25. The inverse relationship between relative velocity and relative pressure (e.g., higher relative velocity results in lower pressure) in a fluid is called _______ principle.
    Bernoulli's

    lift force principle
  27. Lift can occur in which direction?
    perpendicular (upward or downward lift)
