The triceps muscle in the back of the upper arm extends the forearm. This muscle in a professional boxer exerts a force of 2.00×103N2.00×103N with an effective perpendicular lever arm of 3.00 cm, producing an angular acceleration of the forearm of 120rad/s2120rad/s2. What is the moment of inertia of the boxer’s forearm?
