A woman lifts a 7.2-kg barbell in each hand with her arm in a horizontal position at the side of her body and holds it there for 3 s. The deltoid attaches 13 cm from the shoulder joint and makes a 13∘ angle with the humerus. The barbell in her hand is 0.55 m from the shoulder joint, and the center of mass of her 4.0-kg arm is 0.24 m from the joint.
Determine the magnitude of the force that the lifter's shoulder joint exerts on her humerus.

A 74.0 kg weight lifter is doing arm raises using a 7.50 kg
weight in her hand. Her arm pivots around the elbow joint, starting
40.0 ∘ below the horizontal. (See the figure(Figure 1).) Biometric
measurements have shown that both forearms and the hands together
account for 5.65 % of a person's weight. Since the upper arm is
held vertically, the biceps muscle always acts vertically and is
attached to the bones of the forearm 5.50 cm from the elbow...

An 80 kg individual is in a seated position on a machine that
tests knee extension strength. The calf length is 0.440 m,
calf/foot mass is 5.8% of the body mass, calf/foot center of mass
is 53% of the calf length from the knee joint, and calf/foot moment
of inertia about the knee joint is 0.350 kgm2. The quadriceps
moment arm is 0.040 m. The machine’s padding contacts the calf at a
constant moment arm (does not change with knee...

The distance from Dora’s palm to the center of her elbow joint
is 32 cm and the distance from her elbow to the insertion of her

the elbow is flexed 90 and that Lo = 24 cm. Also, assume that the
biceps muscle is parallel-fibered and has no angle of pennation. a)

A) A man holds a 185-N ball in his hand, with the forearm
horizontal (see the figure). He can support the ball in this
position because of the flexor muscle force , which is applied
perpendicular to the forearm. The forearm weighs 18.2 N and has a
center of gravity as indicated. Find (a) the magnitude of and the
(b) magnitude and (c) direction (as a positive angle
counterclockwise from horizontal) of the force applied by the upper
arm bone...
