Clues

  • motion in a straight or curved line, with all the body parts moving the same distance at the same speed in the same direction (6, 6)
  • the effort is between the fulcrum and the resistance (5, 5, 5)
  • the equal and opposite force exerted on a performer who applies a muscular force on the group (6, 8, 5)
  • the larger the area, the greater the stability (4, 2, 7, 4)
  • the length of the line between where the fulcrum and the resistance are labelled (10, 3)
  • the resistance is between the fulcrum and effort (6, 5, 5)
  • this is the line extending vertically downwards from the centre of mass (4, 2, 7)
  • this is the point of balance (6, 2, 4)
  • when measurements are described in terms of just their size or magnitude (6, 8)
  • where the force arm is longer than the resistance arm (10, 9)
