Question

Using standard inverse dynamics to analyze human movement will provide which of the following pieces of information?

Select one:

a. The net torque acting about a joint

b. The individual torques due to both flexor and extensor muscle groups acting about a joint

c. The internal joint reaction forces (including the forces caused by muscle activity)

d. The level of activation for muscles acting about a joint

e. All of the above.

Answer 1

Answer is e.) All of the Above

a) By  summating the momemts of forces we can get the net torque acting about a joint

b)assume torques due to them as x and y by calculating torques about various points and solving those equations we can get x and y

c) by putting the joint in a position with zero net torque we can find the internal joint reaction forces

d) by using the effect of muscle activation level on the force-length relationship we can get the an approximate level of activation
