The forearm-hand complex weights 51N, and the center of mass is 0.17 m from the elbow joint. The person is holding a large wheel of cheese that weighs 98N. The center of mass of the cheese is 0.34 m from the elbow joint. The moment arm of the elbow flexors is estimated to be 0.03m from the elbow. The relative elbow angle is (angle between the humerus and the forearm) is 60°. What force must be exerted by the elbow flexors to keep the forearm in this static position (in N)?
Two scales are separated by 2.00 m, and a plank of mass 4.00 kg is placed between them. Each
scale is observed to read 2.00 kg. A person now lies on the plank, after which the right scale
reads 30.0 kg and the left scale reads 50.0 kg. How far from the right scale is the person's
center of gravity located?
