The large quadriceps muscle in the upper leg terminates at its lower end in a tendon attached to the upper end of the tibia (see Figure a). The forces on the lower leg when the leg is extended are modeled as in Figure b, where T is the force of tension in the tendon, w is the force of gravity acting on the lower leg, and F is the force of gravity acting on the foot. Find T when the tendon is at an angle of 25.0° with the tibia, assuming that w = 29.0 N, F = 12.3 N, and the leg is extended at an angle ? of 40.0° with the vertical. Assume that the center of gravity of the lower leg is at its center and that the tendon attaches to the lower leg at a point one-fifth of the way down the leg. (Give the magnitude.)
A tutor told me that the answer to 1b was 10N but I don't understand why it would be 10N for the tension. If that is correct could someone break it down for me?
One day, you are driving your car down the highway, and you notice that you are driving well over the speed limit. You apply the brakes of the carapplying a variable stopping force, until the car slows down to a rea sonable speed of 22.4 m/s (50 mph)A computer plots the force versus time for the vehicle and then measures the area under the curve. It is found that the area is - 18.950N . The total breaking time was 5.4 s. Given that the combined mass of you and your car 1sm = 1200 kg how fast were you moving before applying the breaks? What is the average force applied by the road to the car during breaking? (Note: 1Ns=1kg* m/s)
