Chapter 7, Problem 8IP

8. Using the diagram in Sample Problem 7.1 as a model, calculate the tension required in the deltoid with a moment arm of 3 cm from the shoulder, given the following weights and moment arms for the upper arm (u), forearm (f), and hand (h) segments: wtu = 19 N, wtf = 11 N, wth = 4 N, du = 12 cm, df = 40 cm, dh = 64 cm. (Answer: 308 N)
