Figure P12.33arrow_forwardWhen a circus performer performing on the rings executes the iron cross, he maintains the position at rest shown in Figure P12.37a. In this maneuver, the gymnasts feet (not shown) are off the floor. The primary muscles involved in supporting this position are the latissimus dorsi (lats) and the pectoralis major (pecs). One of the rings exerts an upward force Fk on a hand as show n in Figure P12.37b. The force Fs, is exerted by the shoulder joint on the arm. The latissimus dorsi and pectoralis major muscles exert a total force Fm on the arm. (a) Using the information in the figure, find the magnitude of the force Fm for an athlete of weight 750 N. (b) Suppose a performer in training cannot perform the iron cross but can hold a position similar to the figure in which the arms make a 45 angle with the horizontal rather than being horizontal. Why is this position easier for the performer? Figure P12.37arrow_forwardRuby, with mass 55.0 kg, is trying to reach a box on a high shelf by standing on her tiptoes. In this position, half her weight is supported by the normal force exerted by the floor on the toes of each foot as shown in Figure P14.75A. This situation can be modeled mechanically by representing the force on Rubys Achilles tendon with FA and the force on her tibia as FT as shown in Figure P14.75B. What is the value of the angle and the magnitudes of the forces FA and FT? FIGURE P14.75arrow_forward
- Three forces are exerted on the disk shown in Figure P12.71,and their magnitudes are F3 = 2F2 = 2F1. The disks outer rimhas radius R, and the inner rim has radius R/2. As shown in thefigure, F1 and F3 are tangent to the outer rim of the disk, and F2 is tangent to the inner rim. F3 is parallel to the x axis, F2 is parallel to the y axis, and F1 makes a 45 angle with the negative x axis. Find expressions for the magnitude of each torque exertedaround the center of the disk in terms of R and F1.

The truss supports a downward force of F=1000N applied at the point B. The truss has negligible weight. The piers at A and C are smooth. (a) Given 1 = 30.0 and 2 = 45.0, find nA and nC. (b) One can show that the force any strut exerts on a pin must be directed along the length of the strut as a force of tension or compression. Use that fact to identify the directions of the forces that the struts exert on the pins joining them. Find the force of tension or of compression in each of the three bars.

The total gravitational force Fg on the body is supported by the normal force n exerted by the floor on the toes of one foot.

He fills two, non‑identical buckets with water and attaches them to a 1.43 m long rod. Since the buckets are not identical, he finds that the rod balances about a point located at a length l=0.0511 m from its midpoint, as shown. The weight of the rod and empty buckets is negligible compared to the weight of the water, and the buckets are not shown to scale. How much more water does the heavier bucket contain(bucket 2), expressed as a percentage?arrow_forwardA 5.45-N beam of uniform density is 1.60 m long.
