Why are the forces exerted on the outside world by the limbs of our bodies usually much smaller than the forces exerted by muscles inside the body?
The drawing below shows a person whose weight is W = 603 N doing push-ups. Assume L1 = 0.880 m and L2 = 0.435 m. Calculate the normal force exerted by the floor on each hand, assuming that the person holds this position.
Why is it more difficult to lean over and push a heavy box across the floor than it is to attach a rope and pull the box at the same angle?
A typical jar that has been tightened to a reasonable degree requires 2.0 N ⋅ m to open. If you grab a 7.0-cm-diameter jar lid with one hand so that your thumb and fingers exert equal magnitude forces on opposite sides of the lid, as shown, what is the magnitude of each of the forces?

A hiker who has broken his forearm rigs a temporary sling using a cordstretching from his shoulder to his hand. The cord holds the forearmlevel and makes an angle of 40.0° with the horizontal where it attachesto the hand. Considering the forearm and hand to be uniform, with atotal mass of 1.30 kg and a length of 0.300 m, find (a) the tension inthe cord and (b) the horizontal and vertical components of the force, f>,exerted by the humerus (the bone of the upper arm) on the radius andulna (the bones of the forearm).
A traffic light weighing 122 N hangs from a cable tied to two other cables fastened to a support as in 5.11a. The upper cables make angles of θ1 = 37.0° and θ2 = 53.0° with the horizontal. These upper cables are not as strong as the vertical cable and will break if the tension in them exceeds 100 N. Does the traffic light remain hanging in this situation, or will one of the cables break?
