Trina is a gym goer with a leg length of 84 cm. Suppose that she is in the gym doing straight legraising with 10 lb weights.
Compute for the force that the muscle should exert in order to (1) maintain it in the position and(2) lift the weight up given that the distance of the effort (muscle) from the joint is 54 cm,distance of the weight is 80 cm, and the COM is 45 cm from the joint.
ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS:
1.) Compute for the force that will maintain the position.
2.) Compute for the force needed to lift the weight higher.
3.) Assuming that the hip flexion angle is at 60 degrees, compute for the lineardisplacement of the leg.
A hungry bear weighing 720 N walks out on a beam in an attempt to retrieve a basket of food
hanging at the end of the beam. The beam is uniform, weighs 220 N, and is 9 m long; the
basket weighs 82 N. If the wire can withstand a maximum tension of 958 N, what is the
maximum distance x that the bear can walk before the wire breaks?
