- Three main forces that act on the patella, and are shown on the diagram below. These forces are the quadriceps muscle force (FQ), the patella ligament force (FPL), and the patellofemoral joint reaction force (FPF). The angles a and ẞ are with respect to a line that is perpendicular to FPF. Assuming a = 10°, ẞ = 30°, and FQ = 4000 N, use the equations for static equilibrium to calculate the FPL in Newtons.
