The mandible (lower jaw) is attached to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The masseter muscle is responsible for pulling the mandible upward when you are talking or eating. It is attached at a horizontal distance of about 2.40 cm from the TMJ. The horizontal distance from the TMJ to your incisors is 6.60 cm. If the masseter muscle exerts a force of 198 N on your mandible when you bite into an apple at a constant rate, then what is the magnitude of the force exerted by your incisors on your food, assuming that both forces are vertical?
