A patient's foot shown in the figure does contact the floor only at point P (the heel () does not touch the floor). The calf muscle acts on the foot with a force at point A, while the lower leg bones act on the foot with a force at point B. If the patient's weight is 900 N, distance a = 5 cm and distance b = 15 cm, the calf's force (in N) is: Calf muscle Lower leg bones •A O 2700 downward O 2700 upward O 4500 downward O 9 0 downward 4500 upward

Question 1) The figure shows a person wearing weight boots and doing lower leg flexion/extension exercise in sitting position to strengthen the quadriceps muscles and a simple mechanical model of his leg. W 1 is the weight of the lower leg, Wo is the weight of the boot, FM is the magnitude of the pulling force exerted on the tibia by the quadriceps muscles through the patellar tendon, F, is the magnitude of the reaction force acting on the tibiofemoral joint. Point O is the center of the tibiofemoral joint, Point A is the point where the patellar tendon attaches to the tibia, Point B is the center of gravity of the lower leg, C point of gravity is the center of gravity of the boat. The distances between point O and points A, B and C were measured as a = 10 cm, b=22 cm and c=43 cm, respectively. The angle between the long axis of the tibia and the horizontal is B=38°, the angle between the action line of the quadriceps muscle strength and the long axis of the tibia is a=18°. Points O,…
