During the gait cycle of an individual walking with a 3.5 kg prosthetic leg that has a radius of gyration about a mediolateral (transverse) axis through its COM of 14.1 cm; the distance between the mediolateral axis through hip and the mediolateral axis through the COM of the prosthesis is 0.60 m. The moment of inertia of the individual's thigh about a mediolateral axis through the hip COM is 0.0165 kg m2. The mass of the individual's thigh is 7.55 kg and the distance between the thigh COM axis and the hip axis is 32 cm. What is the moment of inertia of the individual's lower extremity at this point in the gait cycle?
