Unlike most of the other muscles in our bodies, the masseter muscle in the jaw, as illustrated in Figure 9.44, is attached relatively far from the joint, enabling large forces to be exerted by the back teeth. (a) Using the information in the figure, calculate the force exerted by the lower teeth on the bullet. (b) Calculate the force on the joint.

A girl has a large, docile dog she wishes to weigh on a small bathroom scale. She reasons that she can determine her dogs weight with the following method. First she puts the dogs two front feet on the scale and records the scale reading. Then she places only the dog's two back feet on the scale and records the reading. She thinks that the sum of the readings will he the dogs weight. Is she correct? Explain your answer.
When using a pencil eraser, you exert a vertical force of 6.00N at a distance of 2.00cm from the hardwood-eraser joint.
