A soccer player extends her lower leg in a kicking motion by exerting a force with the muscle above the knee in the front of her leg. She produces an angular acceleration of 30.00 rad/s2 and her lower leg has a moment of inertia of 0.750kg-m2 What is the force exerted by the muscle if its effective perpendicular lever arm is 1.90 cm?

Figure CQ10.15 shows a side view of a childs tricycle with rubber tires on a horizontal concrete sidewalk. If a string were attached to the upper pedal on the far side and pulled forward horizontally, the tricycle would start to roll forward. (a) Instead, assume a siring is attached to the lower pedal on the near side and pulled forward horizontally as shown by A. Will the tricycle start to roll? If so, which way? Answer the same questions if (b) the string is pulled forward and upward as shown by B, (c) if the string is pulled straight down as shown by C, and (d) if the string is pulled forward and downward as shown by D. (e) What If? Suppose the string is instead attached to the rim of the front wheel and pulled upward and backward as shown by E. Which way does the tricycle roll? (f) Explain a pattern of reasoning, based on the figure, that makes it easy to answer questions such as these. What physical quantity must you evaluate? Figure CQ10.15
The triceps muscle in the back of the upper arm extends the forearm. This muscle in a professional boxer exerts a force of 2.00102 N with an effective perpendicular lever arm of 3.00 cm, producing an angular acceleration of the forearm of 120 rad/s2. What is the moment of inertia of the boxer's forearm?
Many of the elements in horizontal-bar exercises can be modeled by representing the gymnast by four segments consisting of arms, torso (including the head), thighs, and lower legs, as shown in Figure P8.15a. Inertial parameters for a particular gymnast are as follows: Note that in Figure P8.l5a rcg is the distance to the center of gravity measured from the joint closest to the bar and the masses for the arms, thighs, and legs include both appendages. I is the moment of inertia of each segment about its center of gravity. Determine the distance from the bar to the center of gravity of the gymnast for the two positions shown in Figures P8.15b and P8.15c. Figure P8.15

A ball slides up a frictionless ramp. It is then rolled without slipping and with the same initial velocity up another frictionless ramp (with the same slope angle). In which case does it reach a greater height, and why?
A diver off the high board imparts an initial rotation with his body fully extended before going into a tuck and executing three back somersaults before hitting the water. If his moment of inertia before the tuck is 16.9kgm2 and after the tuck during the somersaults is 4.2kgm2 , what rotation rate must he impart to his body directly off the board and before the tuck if he takes 1.4 s to execute the somersaults before hitting the water?
A person balances a meterstick in a horizontal position on the extended index fingers of her right and left hands. She slowly brings the two fingers together. The stick remains balanced, and the two fingers always meet at the 50-cm mark regardless of their original positions. (Try it!) Explain why that occurs.
