A man holds a 169-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 y, which is applied perpendicular to the forearm. The forearm weighs 22.2 N and has a center of gravity as indicated. Find (a) the magnitude of M and the (b) magnitude and (c) direction (as a positive angle counterclockwise from horizontal) of the force applied by the upper arm bone to the forearm at the elbow joint. Upper arm bone Flexor muscle cg Elbow joint 0.0510 m 0.0890 m 0.330 m
Rotational Equilibrium And Rotational Dynamics
In physics, the state of balance between the forces and the dynamics of motion is called the equilibrium state. The balance between various forces acting on a system in a rotational motion is called rotational equilibrium or rotational dynamics.
Equilibrium of Forces
The tension created on one body during push or pull is known as force.
