Explanation Write the equation to find the velocity of left runner with respect to the runner on the right side. v l r = v l − v r (I) Here, v l r is the velocity of runner on left hand side with respect to runner on right hand side, v l is the velocity of left side runner with respect to ground and v r is the velocity of right side runner with respect to ground. Write the equation to find the time at which they meet each other. Δ t = Δ x v l r (II) Here, Δ t is the time at which they meet each other and Δ x is the separation between runners. Write the equation to find the meeting position with respect to the starting point of runner on left hand side. x = v l Δ t (III) Here, x is the distance covered by left side runner until met another person. Conclusion: Substitute 4.50 m / s for v l and − 3.50 m / s for v r in equation (I). v l r = 4

(1) Fm Fmn mn Fm B W₁ e Fmt W 0 Fit Wt 0 W Fit Fin n Fmt n As illustrated in Fig. consider the person performing extension/flexion movements of the lower leg about the knee joint (point O) to investigate the forces and torques produced by muscles crossing the knee joint. The setup of the experiment is described in Example above. The geometric parameters of the model under investigation, some of the forces acting on the lower leg and its free-body diagrams are shown in Figs. and For this system, the angular displacement, angular velocity, and angular accelera- tion of the lower leg were computed using data obtained during the experiment such that at an instant when 0 = 65°, @ = 4.5 rad/s, and a = 180 rad/s². Furthermore, for this sys- tem assume that a = 4.0 cm, b = 23 cm, ß = 25°, and the net torque generated about the knee joint is M₁ = 55 Nm. If the torque generated about the knee joint by the weight of the lower leg is Mw 11.5 Nm, determine: = The moment arm a of Fm relative to the…
