Place the following in order on the open-closed skills continuum.

-Soccer

-AFL

-Surfing

-Basketball 


Soccer/Basketball

Afl

Surfing

100

The practice stage could be referred to as which Stage of Learning 

Associative

100

How could someone increase their base of support?

feet shoulder width apart

crouch lower

move in direction of incoming force

100

What is the difference between distance and displacement?

Distance- Metres covered

Displacement- Metres away from original position

200

What might a young teenager in Geelong face as a sociocultural factor?

Time- Studying at school

Financial- Too expensive to play

Parents- Don't play sport/ Play a certain sport

Location- No sporting ground nearby for sport wanting to play

200

What three factors make up projectile motion? Rank them from most important to least important when aiming for distance

Speed of release

Angle of release

Height of release

200

Explain the concept of conservation of momentum

whatever force has been produced will be transferred to another object upon contact equal to the force produced

200

Explain why increasing the length and weight of a golf club doesn't make the golf ball go further when hit?

Having a larger mass requires more force to apply the same speed on the club which may not be possible for the golfer

300

Explain the difference between qualitative data and quantitative data using Netball as an example

Quantitative-Successful passes made

Qualitative- Coach observing poor decision making, Not throwing ball high enough, bounce pass ineffective etc. 

300

Explain how task complexity/organization is relevant to Part Practice Training. 

Part practice involves learning parts of the skill independently and then performing them together. Relates to complexity and organization as some skills require many parts that are reliant on the previous stage of the skill. 

300

What are Newtowns 3 laws of motion? Provide an example for each

Law of Inertia- Heavier the object harder it is to move

Law of Acceleration- Force=Mass x acceleration. Lighter objects moving at the same speed will travel faster

Action/Reaction- Runner pushing off ground propels them forward

300

Using the terms Centre of Gravity, Angular velocity and Moment of inertia explain what happens when a diver completes a somersault into the water. 

As the athlete bouncing off the diving board there centre of gravity must be slightly forward to propel them forward. When in a standing position the moment of inertia is high compared to the angular velocity. As the diver begins to move into a tuck position the angular velocity increase and moment of inertia decreases.

Using a sport example of your choice list and explain the three types of feedback a player may receive. 

Intrinsic

Extrinsic/Knowledge of Performance

Knowledge of Results

400

Explain the difference in practice strategies and types of practice between someone in the cognitive stage and someone in the autonomous stage

Cog- Learning the skill- less variables and massed/blocked practice to increase learning the skill

Auto- Random/Distributed- executing skills when required. Working on tactics of the game

400

Explain the difference between momentum and impulse and use the example of NRL to explain each principle

Momentum- Mass x velocity- Heavier players in positions to block oncoming runners 

Impulse- Momentum over time- Players throwing or passing the ball. Absorbing the impact of a tackle

400

What are the three Laws of Angular Motion? Provide an example for each

Angular momentum remains constant unless acted upon by external torque- Keeping swinging unless slowed by something.

When torque is applied change in direction will be related to size/direction of force applied

For every torque there is an equal and opposite torque- jumping off board into straight line body position
