Problem 11.54
A 73.0 kg weight lifter is doing arm raises using a 7.50 kg
weight in her hand. Her arm pivots around the elbow joint,
starting 40.0° below the horizontal. (See the figure(Figure
1).) Biometric measurements have shown that both forearms
and the hands together account for 6.05 % of a person's
weight. Since the upper arm is held vertically, the biceps
muscle always acts vertically and is attached to the bones of
the forearm 5.50 cm from the elbow joint. The center of mass
of this person's forearm-hand combination is 16.5 cm from
the elbow joint, along the bones of the forearm, and the
weight is held 38.0 cm from the elbow joint.
