In summary, biomechanics is the study of how living organisms move and function, and it heavily relies on the principles of physics to understand and analyze these movements. By applying laws of motion, forces, and energy, biomechanics helps explain how the body moves and performs tasks, such as walking, running, and throwing. It also plays a crucial role in fields such as sports, rehabilitation, and ergonomics, as it can be used to optimize movement and prevent injuries. Overall, biomechanics provides a deeper understanding of the complex mechanics of the human body and its interactions with the physical world.
