Chapter 9, Problem A.32RQ
Summary Introduction

To determine: The advantages and disadvantages of the muscle-bone-joint lever system.

Introduction: In humans, the movement of some joints uses the principle of levers. A lever can be defined as a rigid object that can rotate around the stationary fulcrum (fixed point). When the physics is related to biology, the joint axis is the fulcrum, levers are bones, motions are created by skeletal muscles, and resistance is the weight of the body part.
