What is the definition of gait?
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?
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?
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)
