The Achilles tendon inserts on the calcaneus at a distance of 8 cm from the axis of the ankle joint. If the force generated by the muscles attached to the Achilles tendon is 3000 N and the moment arm of this force about the ankle joint axis is 5 cm, what torque is created by these muscles about the ankle joint? Express your answer in Nm.

The Achilles tendon inserts on the calcaneus (the heel bone) at a distance of 8 cm from the axis of the ankle joint. If the force generated by the muscles attached to the Achilles tendon is 3000 N, and the moment arm of this force about the ankle joint is 5 cm, what torque is created by these muscles about the ankle joint? Hopefully it’s enough torque to move out of the way so the arrow doesn’t shoot through the tendon.
A uniform drawbridge must be held at a 37° angle abovethe horizontal to allow ships to pass underneath. The drawbridge weighs45,000 N and is 14.0 m long. A cable is connected 3.5 m from thehinge where the bridge pivots (measured along the bridge) and pullshorizontally on the bridge to hold it in place. What is the angular speed of the drawbridge as it becomes horizontal?
The figure shows a jet engine suspended beneath the wing of an airplane. The weight of the engine is 10100 N and acts ash shown in the figure. In flight the engine produces a thrust of 64500 N that is parallel to the ground. The rotational axis in the figure is perpendicular to the plane of the paper. With respect tot he axis, find the magnitude of the torque due to (a) the weight and (b) the thrust.
