assumed to be the only muscle acting and is attached to the arm as shown. The maximum force M that the
deltoid muscle can supply has a magnitude of 2481 N. The distances that locate where the various forces act
on the arm. What is the weight of the heaviest dumbbell that can be held by the bodybuilder? Note: Express
your answer in whole numbers. No unit is required for the final answer.
