Questions and Answers

What is the definition of gait?

  • Random movements of the trunk and extremities without displacement of the center of gravity
  • Static movements of the trunk and extremities without any displacement
  • Rhythmic alternating movements of the trunk and extremities with forward displacement of the center of gravity (correct)
  • Rapid movements of the trunk and extremities in a circular motion
  • How is the gait cycle defined?

  • Time between the heel strike of a lower limb and the subsequent heel strike of the same lower extremity (correct)
  • Time between the heel strike of a lower limb and the subsequent toe-off of the same lower extremity
  • Time between the toe-off of a lower limb and the subsequent heel strike of the same lower extremity
  • Time between the toe-off of a lower limb and the subsequent toe-off of the same lower extremity
  • According to Newton's third law, how is the ground reaction force (GRFV) formed?

  • In response to the force vector with a force vector of a different size and a similar direction
  • In response to the force vector with a force vector of a smaller size and a different direction
  • In response to the force vector with a force vector of a larger size and a similar direction
  • In response to the force vector with a force vector of the same size and an inverse direction (correct)
