When you lift an object by moving only your forearm, the main lifting muscle in your arm is the biceps. Suppose the mass of a forearm is 1.10 kg . If the biceps is connected to the forearm a distance dbicepsdbicepsd_biceps = 2.50 cm from the elbow, how much force Fbiceps must the biceps exert to hold a 750 g ball at the end of the forearm at distance dball = 32.0 cm from the elbow, with the forearm parallel to the floor? Although it is uncommon, orthopedic surgeons have seen patients who have torn their biceps tendon when forces of greater than 390 N have been exerted on the tendon with the arm bent at the elbow so that the forearm is parallel to the ground. What is the minimum mass of a ball Mball such a patient might have held to cause the biceps tendon to tear?
