When you lift an object by moving only your forearm, the main lifting muscle in your arm is the biceps. Suppose the mass of a forearm is 1.30 kg . If the biceps is connected to the forearm a distance dbiceps = 3.00 cm from the elbow, how much force Fbiceps must the biceps exert to hold a 750 g ball at the end of the forearm at distance dball = 35.0 cm from the elbow, with the forearm parallel to the floor? How much force Felbow must the elbow exert? (Figure 1)

How much force Felbow must the elbow exert? What is the horizontal distance dforearm between the elbow and the point where the weight of the forearm acts?
During most of the stance phase of the gait, the knee flexion is less than 20º. What force must the quadriceps muscle apply to maintain this flexion while standing on one leg? The patient's weight is 836N, assuming that the distance from the center of the joint to the line of gravity is 5 cm and the distance perpendicular to the center of the joint towards which the muscle acts is 5 cm, and the muscle acts ( pull) at 60º to the horizontal.
