The chewing muscle, the masseter, is one of the stron- gest in the human body. It is attached to the mandible (lower jawbone) as shown in Figure P8.33a. The jawbone is pivoted about a socket just in front of the auditory canal. The forces acting on the jawbone are equivalent to those acting on the curved bar in Figure P8.33b. F. is the force exerted by the food being chewed against the jawbone, T is the force of ten- sion in the masseter, and R is the force exerted by the socket on the mandible. Find T and R for a person who bites down on a piece of steak with a force of 50.0 N. 3.50 cm – 7.50 cm Masseter Mandible Б a Figure P8.33

Understanding the details of timing and forces in motion can improve the performance of athletes, including dancers. Consider the forces involved in a ballet jump called a sauté demi plié. P9.84a shows the sequence of moves in the jump. The dancer starts upright, then quickly bends her knees, moving downward. After she reaches the bottom of this dip, she extends her legs, pushing herself upward. After this upward push, she leaves the ground, beginning a short period of time in the air. P9.84b is a slightly idealized graph of the net force on a 42 kg dancer executing this move. The sauté demi plié begins with a phase in which the net force on the dancer is negative. During this phase of the jump,A. The normal force of the floor on her is zero.B. The normal force of the floor on her is less than her weight but greater than zero.C. The normal force of the floor on her is equal to her weight.D. The normal force of the floor on her is greater than her weight.

A kitchen door is attached to a vertical support by a set of hinges. Assume the door is uniform and has height 2.40 m, width 0.865 m, and mass 21.0 kg. A. Determine its moment of inertia (in kg · m2) for rotation on its hinges. B. Are any pieces of data unnecessary? (Select all that apply.) The height of the door is unnecessary. The width of the door is unnecessary. The mass of the door is unnecessary. No; all of the data are necessary.
A rope with a negligible mass has two blocks that are suspended over a pulley, m, and M, as shown in the image. The pulley can be considered as a uniform solid cylindrical disk. Draw a free body diagram and explain if the tensions in the two strings equal? Why? Why not? To solve the problem, why can’t I use the system approach and write the equation for M and m at the same time? Please write the equations that will help solve for T1 and T2
