A 50 N hand and forearm are held at a 35° angle to the vertically oriented humerus. The CG of the forearm and hand is located at a distance of 12.5 cm from the joint center at the elbow, and the elbow flexor muscles attach at an average distance of 2.5 cm from the joint center. (Assume that the muscles attach at an angle of 35° to the forearm bones.) How much force must be exerted by the forearm flexors to maintain this position?

- An auto magazine reports that a certain sports car has 53% of its weight on the front wheels and 47% on its rear wheels. (That is, the total normal forces on the front and rear wheels are 0.53w and 0.47w, respectively, where w is the car’s weight). The distance between the axles is 2.46 m.

You can also use this exercise position to locate your center of gravity. Holding plank position with a scale under his toes and another under his forearms, one athlete measured that 66.0% of his weight was supported by his forearms and 34.0% by his toes. (That is, the total normal forces on his forearms and toes were 0.660w and 0.340w, respectively, where w is the athlete’s weight.) He is 1.80 m tall, and in plank position the distance from his toes to the middle of his forearms is 1.53 m.

- A person bending forward to lift a load "with his back" (Fig. P8.15a) rather than with his knees" can be injured by large forces exerted on the muscles and vertebrae. The spine pivots mainly at the fifth lumbar vertebra, with the principal supporting force provided by the erector spinalis muscle in the back. To see the magnitude of the forces involved, and to understand why back problems are common among humans, consider the model shown in Fig. PB.15b of a person bending forward to lift a Wo= 185 N object. The spine and upper body are represented as a uniform horizontal rod of weight W, 355 N, pivoted at the base of the spine. The erector spinalis muscle, attached at a point two-thirds of the way up the spine, maintains the position of the back. The angle between the spine and this muscle is 12.0°.

- Find the x- and y -coordinates of the center of gravity for theboomerang in Figure P8.12a, modeling the boomerang as inFigure P8.12b, where each uniform leg of the model has alength of 0.300 m and a mass of 0.250 kg.

The COM of the forearm is located at a distance of 15 cm from the joint center at the elbow, and the elbow flexor muscles have a 3 cm moment arm. How much force must be exerted by the elbow flexor muscles to maintain this position?

The back is pivoting around the base of the vertebral column. Consider the back of the individual as a rigid bar that is controlled by a muscle with an angle of 12° (See picture, d = trunk-head distance = 1 m).a) Calculate the magnitude of muscle force required to lift the box.b) Calculate the magnitude of the force at the base of the vertebral column. Hints: For (a) solve the equilibrium of moments, i.e. what force is required in the muscle to balance out the moments acting around the base of the spine.For (b), solve the equilibrium of forces acting on the spine, including the muscle force you’ve just calculated, in x and y separately. There are two extra forces not shown in the diagram: x and y contact forces acting at the base of the spine. These are whatever is needed to keep the total forces acting on the spine = 0 (so the spine isn’t accelerating off in some…arrow_forward
- A 80-kg person raises his entire body weight on the ball of one foot as shown in the figure. Assuming that the center of gravity is 4.6 cm from the heel, calculate the force exerted by the Achilles tendon on the heel bone of his foot.arrow_forwardStand with your heels and back against a wall and try to bend over and touch your toes. You’ll find that you have to stand away from the wall to do so without toppling over. Compare the minimum distance of your heels from the wall with the distance for a friend of the opposite sex. Who can touch their toes with their heels nearer to the wall: men or women?
