TNCC EXAM REVIEW ALREADY PASSED

Biomechanics - ✔✔Is the general study of forces & their effects



Kinematics - ✔✔Is the study of energy transfer as it applies to ID'ing actual or potential injuries



Mechanism of Injury (MOI) - ✔✔Is how external forces are transferred to the body, resulting in injury



Newton's 1st Law of Motion - ✔✔A body @ rest, stays @ rest unless acted on by an outside force



Newton's Second Law - ✔✔The acceleration of a body is parallel & directly proportional to the net
force acting on the body, is in the direction of the net force, & is inversely proportional to the body's
mass

Force equals mass times acceleration

(It takes more force to move a heavy object vs a light object)



Newton's Third Law - ✔✔For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction



Law of conservation of energy - ✔✔Energy cannot be created or destroyed



When mass is doubled - ✔✔Energy is doubled as well



When velocity is doubled - ✔✔Energy is quadrupled



Mechanical energy - ✔✔The direct impact of an object, such as in a car collision or a pot to the head



Thermal energy - ✔✔The transfer of heat energy, such as a burn from a liquid or hot object like a pot

, Chemical energy - ✔✔Heat energy from active chemical substances, such as household cleaners or
acids



Electrical energy - ✔✔Energy transferred from light sockets, power cord, or lightning



Radiant energy - ✔✔Energy transferred from my blast, sound waves, radio activity, are the common
sunburn



External Energy Forces

Deceleration - ✔✔These include forces the current for my sudden stop in the bodies motion



External Energy Forces

Acceleration - ✔✔These forces are not as common, and result from a sudden and rapid onset of
motion. Think of whiplash when you are rear ended



External Energy Forces

Compression - ✔✔This occurs when a person is crushed by or between objects, such as between a
dashboard and a car seat



Internal forces

Compression - ✔✔The ability of the tissue to resist crush injury or force



Internal Forces

Tension - ✔✔The ability to resist being pulled apart when stretched



Internal forces

Shearing - ✔✔The ability to resist a force applied parallel to the tissue



Blunt trauma - ✔✔The result of a broad energy impact across a large surface area



Penetrating trauma - ✔✔Energy that results in impalement at the point of impact. Injury potential
affected by the velocity of the object
