The figure below shows a horizontal rod, of length 6.4 m, with forces acting on it. A 30 N force acts at its left end, point O, in a direction down and to the left, 45° below horizontal. A 25 N force acts at its center, point C, in a direction up and to the right, 30° to the right of vertical. A 20 N force acts at the right end, in a direction down and to the right, 20° below horizontal.

A person is holding a mass of 13 kg in their hand in equilibrium. One can picture this as the forearm being a thin uniform rod with a mass of 2.5 kg and length of 36 cenitimeters (the hand is at the end of the rod). The bicep exerts a force on the forearm at an angle of say 60 degrees exerted on a point 7 centimeters from the elbow. There are also forces on the elbow itself (in the x and y direction). What is the magnitude of the total force exerted on the elbow in Newtons? 600

The figure below shows three blue-and-gold macaws (Ara ararauna) which are members of the large group of neotropical parrots. The macaws are standing still on a horizontal branch with length L = 1.92 m which remains in equilibrium with the help of two ropes. The branch weighs Wpronch = 43 N, whereas the macaws have masses m, =0.9 kg,m,=0.95 kg and m,=1.15 kg, from left to the right.

You hold a 1.80-N softball in your hand as shown in the figure. Consider your forearm and hand to be a uniform rod with a mass of 1.25 kg and the distance between the elbow joint and the ball in your hand is 2L = 31.5 cm. Your biceps exerts an upward force of 14.5 N on the forearm and is attached at a distance of d = 2.20 cm from the elbow. (a) Using the elbow joint as the axis of rotation, determine the magnitude of the net torque acting about the elbow due to the forearm, hand, and ball.
Two people carry a heavy electric motor by placing it on a light board 2.10 mm long. One person lifts at one end with a force of 450 NN, and the other lifts the opposite end with a force of 570 NN. What is the weight of the motor? Express your answer in newtons. Where along the board is its center of gravity located? Express your answer in meters. Suppose the board is not light but weighs 190 NN, with its center of gravity at its center, and the two people each exert the same forces as before. What is the weight of the motor in this case? Express your answer in newtons. Where is its center of gravity located? Express your answer in meters.
3. A person holds a 10.0 kg lead ball in his hand, a distance of 32.0 cm from the elbow joint, as shown. The biceps, attached at a distance of 2.5 cm from the elbow, exerts an upward force on the forearm. Consider the forearm and hand to be a uniform rod with a mass of 1.50 kg. Calculate the force provided by the biceps muscle in order to hold the arm horizontally as shown. Use the elbow joint as the pivot point. Biceps 32 cm 2.5 cm
The bones of the forearm (radius and ulna) are hinged to the humerus at the elbow. The biceps muscle connects to the bones of the forearm about 2.15 cm beyond the joint. Assume the forearm has a mass of 2.35 kg and a length of 0.445 m. When the humerus and the biceps are nearly vertical and the forearm is horizontal, if a person wishes to hold an object of mass 6.15 kg so that her forearm remains motionless, what is the force exerted by the biceps muscle
In the figure, the center of gravity (CG) of the pole held by the pole vaulter is 1.95 m from the left hand, and the hands are 0.725 m apart. The mass of the pole is 5.0 kg. Calculate the magnitude of the force, in newtons, exerted by his left hand.
