They are properly aligned. A force F is pulling in the x-direction at B. Just as the rod comes off of the wall at A, what is the magnitude of the force F. 1 m B F 1marrow_forwardThe forces acting on the arm of an athlete doing shoulder exercises are shown in the figure. The athlete holds his arm at an angle of β=15° with the horizontal axis. Point O represents the axis of rotation in the shoulder joint, point A represents the connection point of the deltoid muscle to the humerus, point B represents the center of gravity of the arm, and point C represents the application point of the force acting on the hand. The distances between the rotation axis (O point) of the shoulder joint and the points A, B and C are a=20 cm, b =33 cm and c= 65 cm, respectively. The athlete's hand is exerted by a force of F= 150 N, which makes an angle of γ=30° with the vertical from the point C. The weight of the athlete's arm is W= 100 N.
