A man is holding a 2.80-kg ball, as shown in the figure. The distance from the elbow joint to the ball is d= 32.5 cm, and the distance from the elbow joint to the insertion of the triceps muscle is d= 2.50cm. The mass of the lower arm, including the hand, is 3.60 kg, and its center of gravity is at a distance d= 13.6cm from the elbow joint. a)Draw a free body diagram of the forearm. b)What is the magnitude of the force FM, exerted by the triceps?
Even when the head is held erect, as in the figure below, its center of mass is not directly over the principal point of support (the atlanto-occipital joint). The muscles at the back of the neck should therefore exert a force to keep the head erect. That is why your head falls forward when you fall asleep in the class. (a) Calculate the force (in N) exerted by these muscles. (Assume w = 48 N, r1 = 4.8 cm, and r2 = 2.9 cm.) magnitude Ndirection ---Select--- upward downward to the left to the right (b) What is the force (in N) exerted by the pivot on the head? magnitude Ndirection ---Select--- upward downward to the left to the right

A person bending forward to lift a load "with his back" (Figure a) 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 Figure b, of a person bending forward to lift a W-195-N object. The spine and upper body are represented as a uniform horizontal rod of weight W-295 N pivoted at the base of the spine. The erector spinalls 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° Back muscle Pivot R₂ T120 T W W₂ 0 (a) Find the tension in the back muscle. KN D (b) Find the compressional force in the spine.
