- Approximately what magnitude force, FM, must the extensor muscle in the upper arm exert on the lower arm to hold a 4.3-kg shot put (Figure 1)? Assume the lower arm has a mass of 3.0 kg and its CG is 13 cm from the elbow-joint pivot.arrow_forwardEven when the head is held erect, as shown in the figure, its center of mass is not directly over the principal point of support (the atlanto-occipital joint, Point A). The muscles at the back of the neck should, therefore, exert a force to keep the head erect. That is why your head falls forward when you fall asleep in the class. If the head weighs 43 N, calculate the force exerted by the muscles FM using the information in the figure. Assume that x1 = 4.9 cm, x2 = 2.7 cm, and F = 43 N.
