Consider the system shown in the figure below. Assume that the massless rigid bars AB and AC are in horizontal and vertical positions respectively when the system is in static equilibrium. The vector g shows the direction of gravitational acceleration (assume g = 9.81 m/s2).

1. The PASCO human arm model is configured such that the cord representing the bicep is perfectly vertical and the forearm is at 90° (in the figure to the right, the cord is not quite vertical). A mass of 100 g is attached to the hand. Draw a free-body diagram on the figure to the right showing all forces which act on the forearm. The force of the bicep F on the arm The force of the humerus FH on the arm The weight of the forearm W The mass in the hand Wm 100 g Be careful to draw the force vectors with tails beginning at the point where the force is actually applied to the forearm. 2. Consider the free body diagram below. Determine the perpendicular component F̟ of the force F exerted by the biceps brachii on the forearm. Use the fact that cos 0 = H/B to write this component directly in terms of the humerus length H and the biceps length B. H 3. If the forearm is in equilibrium, then there is no angular acceleration and therefore the sum of the torques applied to the forearm must be…
Please could I have the solutions for this question in a step-by-step form. Thank you very much.
1. In lecture I focused on a horizontal mass-spring system so we could ignore gravity, but in practice it's much easier to build a vertical mass-spring system. In the figure below, we can see a suspended spring with spring constant k both before and after a mass m is hooked to it. Y Yo yo is the equilibrium height of the spring (without the mass) and in the figure y = 0 is set at the ground. a) Using the coordinate system in the figure, show that Newton's second law for the hanging mass-spring system leads to the following differential equation: d²y dt² k (y - Yo) - g m b) Now define a new coordinate, y', related to y by a constant shift: y = y' + C, where C = constant. Show that if you choose the right value of C, Newton's second law is identical in form to a mass-spring system without gravity. What is the period of the system? c) Effectively, gravity just shifts the equilibrium position of the system, but the system still undergoes simple harmonic motion. What is the net force on the…
A board sits in equilibrium. On the left end, there is a wire that supports the board from the ceiling, and to the right, there is a sawhorse that supports the board from the ground. The sawhorse is a distance d= 1/5l from the right edge of the board. There is a block with mass ms= 4.5kg that is a distance 3/4l from the right edge of the board. Finally the board has a mass mb= 11kg. c) Write down Newton's 2nd law. Put the equation in terms of mb, ms, g, T, and Fn. Where T is the tension in the wire, and Fn is the normal force of the sawhorse on the board. d) Write down Newton's 2nd Law for rotations. Put the equation in terms of l, mb, ms, g, T, and Fn.
