To develop muscle tone, a woman lifts a 4.00 kg weight held in her hand. She uses her biceps muscle to flex the lower arm through an angle of 60.0°. (a) What is the angular acceleration (in rad/s2) if the weight is 24.0 cm from the elbow joint, her forearm has a moment of inertia of 0.250 kg · m2, and the net force she exerts is 650 N at an effective perpendicular lever arm of 2.20 cm? (Ignore gravity) (b) How much work (in J) does she do
