How do you do this? A hungry bear weighing 700 N walks out on a beam in an attempt to retrieve a basket of goodies hanging at the end of the beam (see figure below).

Find the force exerted by the biceps muscle in holding a 1.00-L milk carton (weight 9.90 N) with the forearm parallel to the floor. Assume that the hand is 35.0 cm from the elbow and that the upper arm is 30.0 cm long. The elbow is bent at a right angle, and one tendon of the biceps is attached to the forearm at a position 5.00 cm from the elbow, while the other tendon is attached at 30.0 cm from the elbow. The weight of the forearm and the empty hand is 16.9 N, and the center of gravity of the forearm with hand is at a distance of 16.5 cm from the elbow.
