If the muscle generates a force of 37.5 N and it is acting with an effective lever arm of 2.15 cm, what is the torque that the muscle produces on the wrist? torque = N.m Palmaris longus muscle about us careers privacy policy terms of use contact us help 2 tv W MacBook Air
1. To tighten a bolt, you push with a force of 100 Nat the end of the wrench handle that is0.5 m from the axis of the bolt. (a) What torque are you exerting? (0.5M)(100N) = 50n/m of Torque (b) If you move your hand inward to be only 0.2 m from the bolt, how much force do youneed to exert to achieve the same torque? (0.8M)(100N) = 80n/m-50n/m = 30n/m more (c) Do your answers depend on the direction of your push relative to the direction of thewrench handle? Yes (90 degrees) perpendicular
Two forces are acting on an object. Which of the following statements are correct? a. The object is in equilibrium if the forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. b. The object is in equilibrium if the net torque on the object is zero. c. The object is in equilibrium if the forces act at the same point on the object. d. The object is in equilibrium if the net force and the net torque on the object are both zero. e. The object cannot be in equilibrium because more than one force acts on it.
