As a swimmer pulls his arm through the water, various muscles exert forces on the upper arm. The figure below shows a force F exerted on the humerus (upper arm bone) by the pectoral muscle. The muscle is connected to the bone d = 7.10 cm from the center point O of the shoulder joint. Find the magnitude of F, if this force's torque on the arm provides half of the total torque balancing the torque produced by the water pushing against the hand. (Let Fhand = 108 and D = 33.0 cm. ) please solve thank you
Complete the following statement: When determining the net torque on a rigid body, only the torques due to forces that form action-reaction pairs as in applying Newton's third law of motion are considered. only forces that are either parallel or perpendicular to the lever arm are considered. O internal forces are considered. external forces are considered. O both internal and external forces are considered.
You open a door by applying a force 1/2 m away from the hinge. The torque you applied was 100 N⋅m. However, the angle at which you pushed the door was 30 degrees from the face of the door. What amount of force did you apply? Please answer in units of newtons and your answer should be exact.
To study torque experimentally, you apply a force to a beam. One end of the beam is attached to a pivot that allows the beam to rotate freely. The pivot is taken as the origin or your coordinate system. You apply a force of F = Fx i + Fy j + Fz k at a point r = rx i + ry j + rz k on the beam. Part a) Calculate the magnitude of the torque, in newton meters, when the components of the position and force vectors have the values rx = 3.71 m, ry = 0.075 m, rz = 0.085 m, Fx = 1.2 N, Fy = -7.6 N, Fz = 1.2 N. Part b) If the moment of inertia of the beam with respect to the pivot is I = 72 kg˙m^2, calculate the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the beam about the pivot, in radians per second squared.
For two existing torques, what third force at a given distance from the pivot will balance them? Imagine a meter stick set up as in the figure. It hangs from a central bracket, and two hanging masses can hang from it from each of their brackets. At a third location, a force probe can either pull up or pull down on the stick, depending on what is needed to balance the stick. The mass of the meter stick is 120 g. sketch the situation (drawing r1, r2, r3, F1, F2, and F3) and determine the magnitude (value) and direction (+ or -) of each torque. Don't include the mass of a bracket that would hold the hanging mass in place; assume the mass listed is the entire mass hanging at that point. For each trial, use the principle of equilibrium (where the sum of torques is zero) to calculate the third, unknown force acting at x3
A wrench is used to apply a torque to a bolt. Forces F1 through F6 all have the same magnitude. The point of application of force F1 (and F4) is a distance d from the center of rotation of the bolt. The application points of F1, F2, and F3 are all distance d apart, as shown. Use the convention that counter-clockwise torques are positive; clockwise torques are negative. Determine the torque applied on the bolt by F6 in terms of the variables and angles given in the problem.
