- 3. An individual does leg curl exercise to strengthen his hamstring muscles. The 3 kg load is located 36 cm from the axis of rotation (the knee joint). The leg weight is 5 kg and the center of mass of the leg is located 20 cm from the knee joint. The radius of gyration about the center of mass of the leg is 14 cm. At the instant shown, the leg is in a horizontal position and is moving counterclockwise with an angular acceleration of a = +4 rad/s² and an angular velocity of w = +3 rad/s² The hamstring muscle inserts 3 cm from the knee joint and is oriented at an angle of 60° with respect to the leg. Treat the 3 kg load as a point mass. Calculate the following: (a) the magnitude of Fm required to cause this motion.

Its angular velocity v can be resolved into two components; one component, directed along Gx, measures the rate of spin of the projectile, while the other component, directed along GD, measures its rate of precession. Knowing that θ= 6° and that the angular momentum of the projectile about its mass center G is determine (a) the rate of spin, (b) ) the rate of precession.arrow_forwardA shaft with 3 meters span between two bearings carries two masses of 120 g and 100 g acting at the extremities of the arms 40 mm and 50 mm long respectively.
