What is potential energy?
It is the alpha in the following version of Newton's 2nd Law of motion:
What is angular acceleration?
Phase in which the foot is on the ground.
What is the stance phase?
The type of torque that the hamstrings muscles create about the knee joint.
What is an flexor torque?
The direction of acceleration of a jumper's COG when the GRF is less than the jumper's weight.
What is negative?
The amount of work of someone performing 10 full reps of a bench press.
What is 0 J?
It is the "r" in this equation:
T = Fxxr
What is the moment arm?
Phase in which the leg is advancing forward.
What is the swing phase?
The product of the average force and the time of force application.
What is impulse?
The type of acceleration of an athlete who is slowing down when moving towards the ground during a squat as depicted here:
What is positive acceleration?
The amount of mechanical work expenditure of someone performing 10 full reps of a bench press of 60 kg (~589 N) with a top-to-bottom vertical distance of 50 cm.
What is 5890 J?
This is the resistance to a change in rotational motion and is proportional to mass and the square of the distance away from the axis of rotation.
What is the moment of inertia?
The term typically used to describe the motion of the body's COM during walking.

What is -480 J?
v^2 / r
What is centripetal acceleration?
This muscle(s) maintains frontal plane stability during the single-leg stance phase of walking.
What are the gluteus medius and tensor fascia latae muscles (hip abductors)?
The time it took Ashley (60 kg) to come to a complete stop during landing from a countermovement jump at a vertical velocity of -4 m/s and a vertical GRF of 1500 N.
What is 0.27 seconds?
