If the earth were a sphere, the gravitational attraction of the sun, moon, and planets would at all times be equivalent to a single force R acting at the mass center of the earth. However, the earth is actually an oblate spheroid and the gravitational system acting on the earth is equivalent to a force R and a couple M. Knowing that the effect of the couple M is to cause the axis of the earth to precess about the axis GA at the rate of one revolution in 25 800 years, determine the average magnitude of the couple M applied to the earth. Assume that the average density of the earth is 5.51 g/cm 3 , that the average radius of the earth is 6370 km, and that
( Note: This forced precession is known as the precession of the equinoxes and is not to be confused with the free precession discussed in Prob. 18.123.)
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

The flywheel of an automobile engine, which is rigidly attached to the crankshaft, is equivalent to a 400-mm-diameter, 15-mm-thick steel plate. Determine the magnitude of the couple exerted by the flywheel on the horizontal crankshaft as the automobile travels around an unbanked curve of 200-m radius at a speed of 90 km/h, with the flywheel rotating at 2700 rpm. Assume the automobile to have (a) a rear-wheel drive with the engine mounted longitudinally, (b) a front-wheel drive with the engine mounted transversely. (Density of steel = 7860 kg/m3.)
