The degrees of freedom problem is based on which of the following?

The number of elements of the system that have to be coordinated and controlled

The manipulation of variables within a movement pattern to meet the demands of a given situation is known as

control

The process of containing available degrees of freedom to organize a movement pattern that will effectively achieve the goal of the task is called

coordination

Which of the following is NOT considered an invariant feature?

Specification of muscles and or limbs

Which of the following is NOT considered a parameter?

relatived timing

_____________ are the features of the generalized motor program that are flexible and define how to execute the program?

parameters

The relatively fixed underlying characteristics that define a generalized motor program are known as ____________

Invariant features

Early motor program theories suggest every movement sequence and all of its variations required separate motor programs to be learned and stored in your memory. Two major problems with this theory are the lack of consideration for __________________________

storage space and performing novel tasks

If a pitcher throws a change up and the hitter swings in anticipation of a fastball, the hitter has made an error in which of the following?

parameters selection

**************************
If movements and movement sequences were indeed stored in the muscles as memories, then

NOT WHY MUSCLE MEMORY IS A MYTH

if you injured a muscle, you would have to re-learn the movement sequence

you would only be able to write your name with your dominant hand

body builders would be able to learn and preform more complex motor tasks than average adults

************************
What is the primary difference between open and closed loop system models?

NOT EXECUTION

input

*feedback

processing

What of these movements most likely functions through closed-loop control?

a baseball batter adjusting his swing to hit a curveball pitch

the wind is an example of what type of constraint?

environmental constraint

According to the dynamic system theory, a spontaneous emergence of a movement pattern as a function of the ever-changing interacting constraints is known as __________

self-organization

*********************
Since being bedridden from pneumonia, Martha is no longer able to achieve certain yoga poses. The loss of flexibility in this situation is an example of _______ constraint.

NOT TASK

learner

mental

environmental

Open-loop mechanism controls the initiation of the skill, but closed-loop control is used to continue the movement to its completion.

TRUE

The inner and outer surfaces of a 0.5-cm thick $2-m \times 2-m$ window glass in winter are $10^\circ C$ and $3^\circ C,$ respectively. If the thermal conductivity of the glass is $0.78 W/m \cdot K,$ determine the amount of heat loss through the glass over a period of 5 h. What would your answer be if the glass were 1 cm thick?

An air-standard Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 8, and the temperature and pressure at the beginning of the compression process are $520^{\circ} \mathrm{R} \text { and } 14.2 \mathrm{lbf} / \mathrm{in}^{2},$ respectively. The mass of air is 0.0015 lb. The heat addition is 0.9 Btu. Determine a. the maximum temperature, in $^\circ R.$ b. the maximum pressure, in $lbf/in.^2$ c. the thermal efficiency.

engineering

A 2.64-kg copper part, initially at 400 K, is plunged into a tank containing 4 kg of liquid water, initially at 300 K. The copper part and water can be modeled as incompressible with specific heats $0.385 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{kg} \cdot \mathrm{K} \text { and } 4.2 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{kg} \cdot \mathrm{K},$ respectively. For the copper part and water as the system, determine (a) the final equilibrium temperature, in K, and (b) the amount of entropy produced within the tank, in kJ/K. Ignore heat transfer between the system and its surroundings.

Which of the following is the reaction time resulting from a situation involving options as to how do you respond?

which of the following is the reaction time resulting from a situation involving options as to how to respond? a) choice reaction time.

Which reflex would occur if an individual were to touch a hot stove?

A somatic reflex is an involuntary response to a stimulus, such as pulling one's hand away after touching a hot stove. The nervous system is split into the central nervous system (i.e., the brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (i.e., nervous system outside of the brain and spinal cord).

What is an abstract representation of a movement plan stored in memory that contains all motor commands to carry out an intended action?

A motor program is an abstract representation of a movement plan, stored in memory that contains all motor commands required to carry out the intended action.
